In 4231 A.D., Jack Mason, age 2285, longs for an old love. Earth's population's down to a million or so, and there are virtually no real challenges left. Elected to Phi Beta Kappa, he's been a carrier pilot, a Hurricane Hunter, owner of an executive jet charter service, a stunningly successful investor, a galactic explorer and a felon. A lifelong risk-taker, he was an accessory to fraud and murder as an accomplice to Pete (a.k.a. Moses), his Jewish mentor and ex-Luftwaffe pilot. Investing the millions that come to him from Pete's 20th-century faked-death plot, he focused on biomedicals and pharmaceuticals. Rich in the 20th century, he's fabulously so by the 43rd.
Migrating over centuries from humanity to a fully synthetic entity, Jack succeeds in becoming a massless life form, the first to be successfully produced by a superset of teleportation. Testing his new capabilities, he finds that he can use black holes to move freely in spacetime, and decides to intervene in the crucifixion of Jesus. That done, he explores his own youth, observing his growth to young manhood as he and his mother Serena leave Los Alamos, where his father worked on the Manhattan Project, to live in Bisque, her Georgia hometown.
When Jack enters college, Serena pursues her career as a sculptor in New York, their home before Los Alamos. During a visit he meets her new client, writer/editor/Congresswoman/Ambassador Clare Booth Luce. Their affair begins the same day in the Luces' Waldorf-Astoria suite. Her penchant for powerful men attracts her to Jack as if she foresees his destiny. Later, Jack introduces her to his air charter partners, Pete and Linda; Linda’s been the off-and-on lover of both men. Intrigued, Clare calls her friend William Pawley, a crony of Director of Central Intelligence Allen Dulles, and soon Pete and Linda are flying infiltrators into Castro's Cuba for the CIA.
Their work brings Jack, now in Navy flight training, into the maelstrom of the JFK assassination and cover-up. Both Pete and Rick, his boyhood friend and Special Forces officer, kill participants in the plot. Jack flies them into refuge on offshore starship, where they join Jesus ("Call me Naz.") in a breakfast of synthesized eggs and pork chops…
VETERAN NAVY HURRICANE HUNTER STAN HAYES BEGAN THE JACK MASON SAGA WITH THE ROUGH ENGLISH EQUIVALENT. THE SAGA CONTINUES...
The Quintessence of Quick The Jack Mason Saga edition by Stan Hayes Literature Fiction eBooks
A masterful blend of historical events in this top-notch sequel to the initial adventures of Jack Mason. I personally prefer the first novel (The Rough English Equivalent) because it mostly took place in mine and the author's home town of BIS-kew and I easily recognized the people and places, but this one is a fine testament to the vivid imagination of a hometown boy done good. I don't know how he does it, but somehow he manages to blend a bewildering mishmash of such diverse events as the Bay of Pigs invasion, the Cuban missile crisis, the Kennedy assassination, Jesus, MLK, and even a detailed description of hurricane hunting that could only come from first-hand experiences into an exceptional reading experience. There's even an element of science fiction that quite frankly presents the most unique concept of time travel I've seen. He even explains who's been piloting all those UFOs. When you meet yourself in the 20th century coming from the 43rd, it has to be unparalleled experience. How does one think up a notion like that? I'm definitely looking forward to the next installment of the adventures of Jack Mason, which I understand is to be called "Goosey Gander".Product details

The Quintessence of Quick The Jack Mason Saga edition by Stan Hayes Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I am directing this to those of you who are looking for an intellectually stimulating trip through the last few decades of our history. Terrifying facts that add up to conspiracies that some of us suspected, but don't want to face.
All wrapped around a cast of real and fictitious characters who are believable, fallible, compulsive, and most incredibly likeable.
Hayes builds a story that incorporates science fiction, human desire both documented and fantasy, on a solid historical foundation.
The story begins in a small middle Georgia town, a place well known to the author, having grown up in those environs. A town inhabited by real middle Georgia folks, infused with World War 2 German spies, and the spouse and son of a scientist from the Manhattan project. With that said this is not another World War 2 epic. The romp thru history only begins here, You will have a hard time believing where it goes from there, even though some of you lived through, the historical part anyway!
Hayes has done it again with The Quintessence of Quick. Following Jack while he literally spreads his wings takes the reader on an adventure that is unparalleled. The other review that said, "Oh, to be Jack!" was spot on. Jack actually lives the life that most of us dream about living...and yet Jack lives it in a way to let you know that you could too. A man, Patriot, stud, lover, heir, and all around great American, that is seemingly out of this world, emerges and the last chapter makes you long for more. Can't wait for number three!
This is a must read book. The author is a master at melding the past, present and future into a resounding novel that contains love, sex, war, intrigue, big physical accoutemets (male and female) with a genuine knee slapping yarn in the old South of Georgia.
His years as an aerial navigator has given him an understanding of how small "we" really are.
"For my part, I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream". Vincent Van Gogh
Don't pass up an opportunity to peruse this grand edition of the Jack Mason series.

Oh, to be Jack Mason, leaving a trail of lovely ladies in my wake! But, then maybe I'd rather be the multifaceted Pete Webber, a.k.a. Moses, the former Nazi pilot and spy who bedded Jack's gorgeous mother, Serena, within days of his post World War II arrival in the Hamlet of Bisque, Georgia, before abruptly moving on to pre-Castro Cuba for a fling with his former Baltimore lover's daughter. But, Jack also had a thing going with her in New York when he was younger.
And, then there are the women in this funky little Georgia town beginning with Serena herself and her sister-in-law, Cordelia, the never-met-a-stranger beautician who is pretty much a slam dunk for anybody that takes a notion. Not to mention, her two nieces, the physic Bishop twins, who approached Moses for a deflowering before entering the University of Georgia. And,if that's not enough, there's the well-known powerful and wealthy former actress and ambassador, with whom Jack conducts a torrid affair up and down the Eastern Seaboard.
There's more, too, like the JFK assassins, who hire Pete and his aviator girlfriend to fly them from Miami to sanctuary in Cuba. And, throughout it all, Jack is continously interacting with his (much) older self from the year 2431.
Having enjoyed Stan Hayes's first book, "The Rough English Equivalent", I felt that I was back living vicariously among old friends. Kudos to Stan for another thoroughly entertaining novel.
