by Ira Levin (1994)
This book is AWESOME. A story of a man fighting to free himself from dystopia as in Brave New World and 1984. However, the story is much tighter and exciting than in either of these books. Many twists and turns, all the way to the end. You are in good hands with Ira Levin. He's a master storyteller and a sure hand at suspense, character and dialogue. Enjoy.

Coming from the future, our children's children walked through holes in the air. The holes were time tunnels and down them were fleeing our after-generations, escaping from an invasion of intelligent yet murderously savage aliens.
