The accidental traveler
Kit Fairweather
Twenty years old. Nine companies. Six products. Two food-court bans. Kit sees an opportunity in almost anything—even when he probably shouldn’t.
A time-travel adventure by J.W. Sturm
History remembers
what happened.
It forgot to mention
Kit Fairweather.
One trained time traveler. One wildly optimistic janitor. Along with one extraordinary cat.
THE FIRST MISADVENTURE · EXPECTED THANKSGIVING 2026
MISSION 01 / TITANICThe first book in the series
Titanic.
Not on the Manifest.
The year is 2249, and Andy Starborn has trained for years to face history’s most dangerous turning points. His first assignment should be straightforward: save the Titanic.
Then Kit Fairweather accidentally comes along.
Kit is not a scientist. He is not a soldier. He is the janitor—an endlessly optimistic entrepreneur whose previous businesses have all failed for excellent reasons.
Stranded in 1912 with one impatient orange cat, a battered cleaning cart, and a drawer full of terrible inventions, Kit sees opportunity where Andy sees catastrophe. Bottled glacier water could be his first billion-credit idea.
But as the Titanic races toward its fate, Andy and Kit discover that changing history may be harder than saving the people trapped inside it.
Begin the misadventureThirty-three seconds. A very bad departure.
This was not
the plan.
Andy trained for years to travel through time.
Kit was cleaning the floor.
Watch the first adventure unfold.
A rather unlikely crew
Two travelers.
One extraordinary cat.
No one packed for this.
The trained professional
Andy Starborn
The youngest certified temporal field operative in Union history. Prepared for the past. Less prepared for Kit Fairweather.
The extraordinary cat
Bucket
One white paw. A torn left ear. A firm belief that everything belongs to him. When the trouble starts, this cat does more than watch.
