Synopsis
Only minutes after his tragic murder—and a hundred million years before he’ll be born—Aloysius Cook gets the offer of a lifetime.
Joining a team of time-traveling commandos may not sound like a cushy gig, but at the moment Al’s only alternative involves a closed casket. If he hopes to survive working for The Institute at the Beginning of Time, he’ll need a crash course on temporal paradoxes, recursive causal loops, and the very real possibility of the multiverse folding in on itself like a poorly made origami giraffe.
To prevent a cataclysm that threatens The Institute itself, Al must dive into the time stream alongside a short-tempered saint, a self-centered cyborg, and an embittered survivor of the climate apocalypse. They’ll need to outwit a deadly cadre of rival time travelers—hopefully without stepping on any butterflies or becoming romantically involved with someone’s grandmother.
Read what the critics are saying:
“Did you mean: blurb for a short science fiction novel”—Search Engine, suggested result
“File integrity verified.”
—Antivirus Software, trusted confidante
“Reasonably funny if you’re into that sort of thing.”
—B.T. Lamprey, noted author and aspiring time traveler
