“The end of eternity” is one of my favourite books. It’s a science-fiction novel which is maybe the kind that I like most. The story of this novel, written by Isaac Asimov, is not easy to summarize.
It all happens in a so far future time in which there is a secret company called Eternity that can travel forward and backward in time. This company has the mision of preventing disasters that happen in the earth along all the time.
The main character, Andrew Harlan, is a member os Eternity and in one of his misions he met a girl and they fell in love. But the heads of Eternity suspect the girl, so Harlan and her travelled to a far away time where any member of Eternity has never been. People from Eternity think that in that time the humans have evolved to a specie of superhumans who don’t allow time-travelling of Eternity.
The girl stayed in that time to hide from Eternity, while Harlan is still doing his ordinary life but sometime visiting to his girlfriend.
One day the girl was not in the far away time. Harlan came back and discovered that the heads od Eternity had kidnapped her. Harlan threat them to travel to the moment where Eternity was invented and change it producing the end of Eternity. Harlan succeeded in rescuing the girl but they have to escape at the time where Eternity was created. When they were there, the girl confessed that she was actually a superhuman from a far away time, whose mision was causing the end of Eternity. At the begining Harlan wanted to kill the girl but then he chose destroying the Eternity and living a real life with the girl he loved.
