A World Out Of Time by Larry Niven
After 200 years in cryosleep, Jaybee Corbell awakens to find that his mind has been downloaded to another body and he's in servitude to a harsh future State. After his escape via a spaceship, he traverses such vast distances--with accompanying time dilations--that he returns to Earth 3 million years later to discover a world wholly alien to the one he'd left. A.E. van Vogt wrote, This fantastic novel is a mix of Niven hard science and a time-travel concept to boggle the mind. Larry Niven is one of the giants of modern science fiction. - Mike Resnick His tales have grit, authenticity, colorful characters and pulse-pounding narrative drive.
