Gary Sputnik's life was going nowhere fast—until he accidentally dug up a time machine while burying his goldfish.
Armed with nothing but an AI device, questionable Italian, and the unshakeable confidence of someone who's never faced real consequences, Gary decides to travel back to Renaissance Italy and become the most famous genius in history. What could go wrong?
Apparently, nothing.
Within weeks, Gary is advising the Medici family, collaborating with Leonardo da Vinci, and redesigning St. Peter's Basilica using "mathematical principles" that won't be invented for another 500 years. The only problem? Everyone thinks he's naturally brilliant, and Gary is more than happy to take all the credit.
But when your biggest fans include the Pope and your biggest threat is the Spanish Inquisition, being a fake genius becomes a lot more dangerous than Gary bargained for. Especially when he's having too much fun changing history to worry about the consequences.
