Terminator 2: The New John Connor Chronicles Dark Futures is the first novel in a series of three novels, written by Russell Blackford.

Though the main characters within the books are based upon the films mythology Terminator 2: Judgment Day, they appear to have no connection with the Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles TV series or Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. The novel criss-cross's between two realities, one that follows on from the film, and another more sinister one known as "Skynets world" which gives an alternate plot from approximately half way through the films timeline.

PlotEdit

Following the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Sarah Connor and John Connor, had thought they'd been able to alter the timeline so that neither the artificially intelligent satellite Skynet nor its Terminator killing machines would ever be created. But if they were so successful, why, then, are they now being hunted by yet another Terminator that's travelled back in time to ensure that John never grows up to be the charismatic leader of the few humans who survived Judgment Day? Told from the perspective of John himself, and when a band of human warriors from an alternate timeline make an unexpected appearance, have they come to help John? or the killing machine . . . ?

This first volume of The John Connor Chronicles provides insight to the thoughts and fears of a teenager who already knows what Fate has in store for him-and the burdens he has to bear along the path he must travel to become humanity's future saviour.
