Synopsis

Fighting the wars of the past to protect the future. What could possibly go wrong?

In the 27th century, international disputes are resolved through time travel. By “clocking“ soldiers into the conflicts of the past, wartime industries could drive the global economy without ravaging the modern world. Because the past already happened, history cannot be changed.

Or so the theory went...

Lucas Priest found out the truth the hard way. Enlisting in the U.S. Army Temporal Corps seemed like an incredible adventure compared to his boring corporate job. But after marching with Roman legions against Hannibal, facing Custer’s Seventh Cavalry, and raiding alongside Attila the Hun, Priest is desperate for a little boredom.

Instead, things are about to get much worse.

History can be changed. A rogue madman has launched a plot to kidnap and impersonate King Richard the Lionheart. If he succeeds, the entire timeline will split, shattering the future.

Two elite commando teams have already tried to stop him—and failed. Now, Priest is drafted into a desperate third attempt. Tasked with infiltrating medieval England, his team must pull off impossible impersonations of Sir Ivanhoe, Robin Hood, and Little John.

They have to blend in, survive the past, and stop a timeline catastrophe. The only problem? They might just have to assassinate the King to do it.

If you love fast-paced military science fiction, alternate history, and high-stakes time travel adventures, grab your copy today and jump into the timeline!
