Time Assassins #2
Assassin's Gambit
Altering the Past to Preserve the Future…
Pulled forward in time by the Guild of a distant future, Assassin 101 must help them track down a rogue agent if he ever wishes to return home. What he finds is an unimaginable foe, a web of espionage bent on destruction, and a family secret that threatens the Assassin’s future.
Sebastian Caine, Apprentice Assassin, has fooled the Guild into complacency. Sentenced to death for his crimes, he follows the path of Rick Brewer and escapes into the past to find the only woman that can calm his savage heart. To be with her, he must drastically change the time-line.
Rick Brewer has been a guinea pig for Guild scientists since his capture. His reprieve comes when he and Assassin 97 are sent to capture Caine. As they move through Europe’s Renaissance, Rick’s growing affection toward his partner is put to the test when she is captured and tortured by Caine.
To rescue Assassin 97, Rick must enlist Assassin 101’s assistance. Will Assassin 101 let history stand? Or does he risk everything, in violation of Guild law, to fulfil the prophesy of the family secret?

Riveting read! Again I am up reading into the wee hours unable to put the book down. This book is a really great extension to the first book. There's LOTS of action and there's history (for those that are into that) but it is definitely not as intricate and in depth as was the case in Time Assassins.

A worthy follow-up to Time Assassins. Time travels to the past and the future? What could go wrong? Well...lots...and R. Kyle Hannah does a great job of weaving together what appears to be two different story lines into a very satisfying conclusion that shows how intertwined both the past and the future really are.

Wheeee! Time travel is always fun and this doubled down on the adventure and alternate history of it's predecessor. The characters are more fully realized and the action scenes are just as fun. There are a few technical bobbles keeping it from being five stars, but still great! Highly recommended fun adventure story!
