Praise for the book

“First there was RAH (All You Zombies, and more), Steven Moffat (think the best Dr Who stories), now NVC's stories. The best time travel author in a while.”

— Amazon review

“I loved how Gene Roddenberry always weaved social and moral dilemmas into his sci-fi plots. Van Coops has a similar technique.”

— Amazon review

“Having loved all his previous books, the new novella was another favourite for me.”
