Description
Earth is a toxic, sparsely inhabited wasteland the perfect hiding place for a fugitive exchronman to hide from the authorities.
James has allies, scientists he rescued from previous centuries: Elise Kim, who believes she can renew Earth, given time; Grace Priestly, the venerated inventor of time travel herself; Levin, James's mentor and former pursuer, now disgraced; and the Elfreth, a population of downtrodden humans who want desperately to believe that James and his friends will heal their ailing home world.
James also has enemies. They include the full military might of benighted solar system ruled by corporate greed and a desperate fear of what James will do next. At the forefront of their efforts to stop him is Kuo, the ruthless security head, who wants James's head on a pike and will stop at nothing to obtain it.
Advance Praise
"When you add up all the elements - great cast, high stakes, well-crafted language, new exfoliations of a classic premise - I think we can say with assurance that Chu is certainly on his way to a vibrant second stage of his career."
– Paul Di Filippo, for Locus Magazine
“Time twisting action-adventure as only Wesley Chu could imagine it. I enjoyed it a lot. Read this book!”
– Ann Leckie, Author of the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Ancillary Justice
“Chu creates a fascinating world, strange and familiar, infused with humor, sorrow, courage, greed, and sacrifice. This page-turner is a riveting, gratifying read.”
– Publishers Weekly, starred review

Featured Reviews
The sequel to Chu's excellent TIME SALVAGER.
This is another enjoyable sci-fi thriller. It picks up after the events of the first book, and expands James Griffin-Mars's story very nicely. He's joined by other returning characters, and faces off against dangerous enemies.
If you enjoyed the first book, then I'm sure you'll enjoy this follow-up. If you haven't had a chance to try TIME SALVAGER, yet, then I urge you go do so.
Recommended.
