Tiny Time Machine 3: Mother of Invention

★★★★★ "A new high-concept idea for time travel!" - Reader review

Josh and Meg and the Tiny Time Machine are back in a brand new book! Meg and Josh, having traveled through time to save the world and her father, now face a showdown with her father's murderous partner as they also try to save her mother! A new adventure from Amazing Stories.

John E. Stith is a Nebula Award finalist for Redshift Rendezvous. Aboard the hyperspace liner Redshift, the speed of light is ten meters per second.

In Tiny Time Machine 1, Meg and Josh, two loners on the run from the cops, discovered a time machine built into a cellphone and used it to avert a disastrous future. But along the way, Meg's father, the inventor, was killed.

Tiny Time Machine 2: Return of the Father. Meg and Josh work to save her father with the help of a sarcastic AI, a billionaire and his daughter.

Now, Meg and Josh are back in a third stand-alone adventure. Now they face a showdown with her father's murderous partner as they honor their father's goal to save her mother!

TTM3 revisits the characters and time machine introduced in TTM1 and TTM2. Like TTM1, this is also a stand-alone adventure. But why not double your fun and try both?

Praise for Tiny Time Machine:

"This three-part tale of a couple of smart and unstoppable teens determined to save the world (and rescue a parent or two in the process) with the help of a pocket-sized time-travel device is fast-paced and full of inventive twists and turns. Science, danger, humor, romance--and glimpses of more than one all-too-possible future--there's something here for everybody! A clever, lively, and diverting read!" - Connie Willis, Science Fiction Grandmaster

"John E. Stith is one of our very best writers, and this is one of his very best stories: a big idea explored from every conceivable angle. Tiny Time Machine is a triumph." - Robert J. Sawyer, Nebula and Hugo Award winner

"Stith brings a MacGyveresque enthusiasm, a Tom Swiftian innocence and ebullience married to technological savvy, to this story." - Dr. Paul Levinson, past SFWA VP and author of The Consciousness Plague from Tor Books

About Stith's prior work:

"Stith writes in the best hard-sf manner, dropping characters into a situation that can be solved only by thought and reason, but he also, more modernly, creates real and believable characters. He is becoming one of the most eloquent modern hard-sf practitioners." - Booklist

The list of science fiction authors who play the game the hard way by sticking to the rules of science is all too short. Now to that group which includes Clarke, Niven, Asimov, Bear, and Clement should be added the name of John E. Stith." - Dan Simmons

"This is the kind of story that brought me to SF. Put a little fun back into your life." - Science Fiction Chronicle
