Timeslingers Paperback – Illustrated, July 19, 2019
Purchase options and add-ons
A formula stolen.
A president murdered.
A future threatened.
When governments and revolutionaries hold the keys to time, who is safe?
The Xi'an Liberation Society (XLS) banks on chaos. They exist to usurp the global Union government's power. Their methods toe the line between rebellion and terrorism...and they have just discovered a top secret Union project. Led by Marcus Kline, the XLS launches a calculated assault on history in order to annihilate the Union's future.
The only thing standing in their way is an elite team of time travel operatives: The Union Subdivision. But as the Subdivision attempts to preserve the past, they will reach their breaking point, and the clash of "timeslingers" will resound across centuries.

Fast pacing and powerful hooks will keep the attention of readers from the first page to the last in this genre blend filled with adventure, technology, and science. It seems to be one of those trailblazing pieces of work... giving it a place in literary history.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2020Written to be read in small increments and at a quick pace, the story deftly employs several time travel tropes to great effect, and still provides an original story. Characterization is thin but good; it’s easy to invest in the characters, but there could be more. There’s also a few twists and turns that keep the story interesting. A satisfying read.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2019I liked the premise and so I grabbed this book to read in my downtime. I'm so glad I did. It's a fun, thought provoking read. I tried to put it down to do other things but found myself flipping it open again instead of doing what I should have been doing.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2020Time travel stories are an interesting problem from the writing standpoint. The Union and The XLS are fighting across time. The XLS wants to continue their goals, the union wants to stop them.
The end is why I gave it 3 stars. It's possible that the 3nd rendered the entire story moot. There wasn't enough info on what happens in a time change, or how it a really affects the future.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2020I think the author was looking to create a face-paced, sci-fi book here. What he produced was a choppy, clumsy tome with bluntly stereotypical characters and not enough explanation and/or techno-jargon to give the story any meat or show he did any research or actual deep brainstorming.
However, his TIMESLINGERS e-ads are EVERYWHERE, so I will give him credit for that.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2020I borrowed this book through my Amazon Kindle Unlimited account and was looking forward to reading it. Time Travel is one of my favorite genres. After reading the first chapters, I was really disappointed by the way the story and it's characters jumped around without much adhesion to any Storyline.
I eventually just returned this book to Amazon as it was just too confusing and disjointed, without ever finishing it. .
- Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2020An easy to read and keep the time lines straight adventure into history and time travel. My only caution is the players are not well developed and I would forget who I should be rooting for. Be that as it may, it was a fun story to enjoy in one sitting.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2019Had the original paperback and then bought the kindle version. Great book! Excellent pace. Really enjoyed the world! Looking forward to see what the author comes up with next
- Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2020This is a decent "time cop" style novel. It's pretty fast paced with a lot of action. It was a fun and quick read.
The only real gripe I have is that I would have liked to have even a little bit of explanation about who the XLS are and why they want to do the things they are doing.
Worth the read, but don't expect much depth.
