One word kill

In January of 1986, Nick Hayes, a fifteen-year-old genius, discovers he has what is probably a terminal illness. At the same time, an even stranger thing happens--a girl, Mia, joins his Dungeons & Dragons-playing friend group, and immediately Nick notices a strangely familiar man with should-be-impossible abilities following him. The man warns Nick that Mia's life is in mortal danger, and only Nick can save her.

Limited wish

In the summer of 1986, Nick Hayes--a prodigy, boy-genius, cancer survivor, and even a time travel dabbler, and student at Cambridge University--has begun working with the renowned mathematician Professor Halligan. When he meets a stranger who seems nevertheless familiar, Nick begins to fear his activities have created a disruption in time. Now, Nick, his ex, Mia, and new fellow student Helen must work together to avert the apocalypse of time running out--literally.
