About the Book

The greatest scientific challenge of our age wasn't to enable time travel, it was to prevent it. The laws of physics had turned out to be idiotic, erecting no barriers to hopping time. In fact, they make it hard to avoid. Joad Bevan works for the Time Management Agency, an organization charged with the near-hopeless task of ensuring that the world sticks to the sacred rule of One Second Per Second, and that history unfolds according to plan. But he quickly discovers that there is no plan until he makes one.

"I thoroughly enjoyed it-a terrific Time romp that takes a hefty mallet to the Butterfly Theory and leaves it splattered in the road. Really good read."
- Rob Grant, co-creator of the Red Dwarf television series

"Unwin seems to have had quite a lot of fun engineering the plot's Mobius strip twists and turns .... [The hero's] refreshing attitude helps wind the mainspring of an SF subgenre that's grown a bit lax from overuse.... If Michael Crichton's 1999 novel Timeline had starred as astringent a lead character as Joad, maybe its 2003 movie adaptation would have been better.... Original touches and a misanthropic protagonist keep this clever time-travel tale ticking along nicely."
- Kirkus Reviews
