Synopsis Timescoop by : John Brunner

A Pandora's box of evil Freitas had commanded the engineers of his vast, world-wide empire to build him a device that could ransack the past. Now all the riches of the ages were his for the taking.

Synopsis Times Without Number by : John Brunner

If the past is tampered with, the present might be totally transformed. So the whole fabric of reality depends on the watchful efforts of the Society of Time. Don Miguel Navarro is a junior officer in this force dedicated to defending the Spanish Empire and the mother church from the results of meddling in history by time-travellers. But he begins to wonder just how dedicated the Society really is when he has to deal with a case of corruption involving fellow officers . . . After he has to rescue the entire court from death at the hands of Amazon warriors brought through time, his greatest trial becomes unavoidable. Facing a threat to the most vulnerable event in his world's history, can the young Don prevent catastrophe? Or will the glorious triumph of the Spanish Armada never have occurred?

Synopsis The Tides of Time by : John Brunner

First there was the end. After weeks of running from pursuers, Gene and Stacy finally found refuge on an isolated island. But around them the island changed - and so did they. Each time they awoke from sleep, they lived a different life in a different time. And the farther back they went, the more they lost their anchor to their own world. When at last they were found, the people they had become no longer recognised their pursuers. And that was the beginning.

Synopsis A Fugue in Time by : Rumer Godden

Ghosts past, present, and future haunt an old London house in this masterful work of fiction from a New York Times–bestselling author. Sir Roland Ironmonger Dane is the last of his family to occupy the house at Number 99 Wiltshire Place in London. Now, in the early days of World War II, the elderly former general has been told that he must vacate the premises when the ninety-nine-year lease is up, leaving the only home he has ever known. But Sir Rolls and his longtime butler, Proutie, are not the only remaining residents. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow share the same space inside the old house, and every occupant from the past hundred years lives there still: Rolls’s ill-fated mother, Griselda; his father, the all-seeing “Eye”; his eight sisters and brothers. Even Rollo, the young boy Sir Rolls once was, continues to reside in Number 99, as does Lark, the adopted orphan whom he loved but let slip away. A century of a family’s history remains alive and vibrant within these walls, the events that defined their lives unfolding over and over again. But that living history is not ending quite yet, for the war is bringing a stranger from America to Number 99 Wiltshire Place to leave her indelible mark on it. A different kind of ghost story, Rumer Godden’s poignant, stylistically brilliant A Fugue in Time is a story rich in wonder, imagination, and heart—a favorite of the many devoted fans of the bestselling author of Black Narcissus and In This House of Brede. This ebook features an illustrated biography of the author including rare images from the Rumer Godden Literary Estate.

Synopsis Time: 1. Timenami by : Shawn M. Tomlinson

Martin sat in an old office chair. It didn't seem odd in the New Old West saloon. End o' the world and all, he thought. He knew them the moment they walked in. The man and woman were dressed right, but out of place. "Evenin'" Martin said casually. "We understand you buy new technology," the man said The lanky woman reached under her poncho and held a small black rectangular object out to him. Martin looked at it, said, "OK, I give up. What's it do?" The man dropped something, and there was a blinding explosion. "Flash-bang," Martin thought as he holstered his pistol. He scooped up the black rectangle, shoved it in his pocket and left. Back at his house Martin, looked at the device, set his drink down. He pulled out a cheroot, lit it, examined the device closely. His thumb ran along the flat surface and everything got loud suddenly. There was a blast and white light and the room disappeared. Martin felt rapid movement, said, "Another mission," and was gone.

Synopsis Time Spike by : Eric Flint

THE DEADLIEST PREDATORS OF THREE SEPARATE EONS Captain Andy Blacklock was overseeing the change of shifts at the state of Illinois' maximum-security prison when the world outside was suddenly ripped. They thought it was an earthquake until they found that the Mississippi River had disappeared, along with all signs of civilization. Then the sun came up¾in the wrong direction. And a dinosaur came by and scratched its hide against the wall of the prison ... Something had thrown the prison back in time millions of years. And they were not alone. Other humans from periods centuries, even millennia, apart had also been dropped into the same time. Including a band of murderous conquistadores. But the prison had its own large population of murderers. They couldn't be turned loose, but what else could be done with them. Death walked outside the walls, human savagery was planning to break loose inside, and Stephens and the other men and women of the prison's staff were trapped in the middle.

Synopsis Time: 2. Nemesis by : Shawn M. Tomlinson

"Now, what are you guys doing here?" Martin asked. "Not that it isn't great to see you, but it usually means trouble and I already have that. Got a whole bunch of military types - Chloe probably told you - who want to get me killed soon as possible." "Didn't think I'd see you leading the troops," Trevor said. "And you won't, if I can help it," Martin said. The "military types" came in, handshakes around. "OK, so what's the deal?" Martin asked. "Not another bloody 'Timenami, ' I hope. Until you get a better name for it, count me out." "It's your old pal from just after The Fall, Gen. Shaw," Gen. Ted Dorne said. "Crazy ol' Ratface?" Martin asked. "Figures." "He's decided the end of world wasn't good enough," Dorne said. "He wants to finish us off." "Wants his own world, more like," Martin said. "Don't care," Chloe said, eying Martin. "We're not doing it." "Oh, come on," Martin said, smiling at his bride-to-be. "It'll be fun. We'll free a bunch of people and see the After-the-Fall sites."
