About this title

Synopsis

"Well-developed. One confusing thing is that on the copyright page "Book I, The Other Side of Time" & "Book II, Assignment in Nowhere" are referred to but in Beyond the Imperium, the labeling is: "Book I, Assignment in Nowhere" & "Book II, The Other Side of Time". I liked Book I the most, Book II was a bit too sword'n'sorcery for my tastes. Both are adventure stories exemplified by passages like this: "I forgot all about the slug gun. I went through the door at a run, launched myself at the figure from whom heat radiated like a tangible wall and saw it turn with unbelievable, split-second speed, throw up a hand—five glowing fingers outspread — take one darting step back— "Long, pink sparks crackled from the outflung hand, leaping toward me. Like a diver hanging suspended in midair, I saw the harsh electric glare, heard the pop! as the miniature lightnings closed with me. . . . "
