Hunter Blain

A father travels to the future to team up with himself and change the past in this thrilling sci-fi sequel from the bestselling author of Sol Saga. Andrew Frost doesn't have time to relax. Having defeated an enigmatic killer and made a massive sacrifice to protect his family, he now has an even bigger problem on his hands. It seems his daughter's mere existence could bring about the collapse of the universe. So, on the advice of Tim, his super-intelligent canine AI companion, Andrew decides to travel forward in time to get some help from someone who should know exactly what to do: himself. After journeying through the wormhole, Andrew and Tim arrive in a strange world where the rich inhabit towering skyscrapers in vast metropolises while the poor live in squalor in crumbling ruins walled off from the wealthy. Future Andrew is (not unexpectedly) pissed to see his younger self-and he's mysteriously strong for his own advanced age. Whether they want to or not, Andrew and Tim will have to work with their alternate selves to find out how to stop the destruction of the universe. But they'll also need to watch their backs. Because a deadly enemy has returned, poised to wipe out any Andrew from any timeline . . .

In this action-packed sci-fi thriller from the bestselling author of the Sol Saga, a man is on a mission to stop his family's killer no matter what-or when. Andrew Frost had been gone no more than fifteen minutes. It was just supposed to be a quick run to the store. But in that brief interval, his entire universe was stolen from him, every parent and spouse's worst nightmare on display at the kitchen table upon his return. Two months later, he'd do anything to see Sylvia and Alison again. He's certainly taken enough pills to make that possible. However, there may be another way . . . With the help of a strangely anachronistic device and its snarky AI, Andrew suddenly has a chance at a new future. It's simply a matter of changing the past. Soon, he's chasing after a killer with a shifting face, who has his sights set on Andrew's wife and daughter. He can't-he won't-let them die again. But when the mysterious Clockmen are dispatched with orders to keep the timeline on track at any cost, it could mean the last grain of sand in the hourglass for Andrew, bringing his own time to an end. How far would you be willing to go-and what price would you pay-to save the ones you love? In this thrilling science-fiction adventure from Hunter Blain, bestselling author of the Preternatural Chronicles and Sol Saga, a grieving father will discover the inevitable cost of manipulating time in order to do the impossible.

Throughout time and space, stars align, wars are fought, and in some cases, paths are crossed.

This collection of short stories is one such instance. The characters in this collection, while all living in their own worlds, are somehow touched by an entity sharing the same purpose.
