The Queen of the World, or Under the Tyranny
by Standish O’Grady
Young Irishman Gerard Pierce de Lacy is sent to the year 2179 A.D. by a mysterious figure
named the Bohemian, where he falls in love, fights with the underground using fantastic
weapons against the Chinese overlords, defeats the overlords, and puts his love on the
throne of the world.
Know then that it is within my power to transfer you from the age in which we live, of
which all the interest has for you been exhausted, to any other age that you may select,
past or future.
