King Street Run - Ling V. R.

To Thomas, archaeology was time travel...

little did he know how literal that would turn out to be.

Thomas Wharton, an archaeology graduate, becomes drawn into the problems of a series of anachronistic characters who exist in the fractions of a second behind our own time. These characters turn out to be personifications of the Cambridge Colleges; they have the amalgamated foibles, history, and temperament of their Fellows and students and, together with Thomas, must enter into a race against time to prevent their world being destroyed by an unknown assailant.

  King Street Run is a satirical fantasy thriller set among the iconic buildings of contemporary Cambridge.
