Les Lynam (1954- ) was born in Creston, Iowa, into a farming family which also included an older brother and two older sisters. The family farm was near the tiny community of Corning, Iowa, (birthplace of Johnny Carson). After graduating from Corning High School, he attended Central Missouri State University (renamed University of Central Missouri in 2006), graduating in 1976 with a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communications. After a short, mostly unsuccessful, attempt at running a print shop, he refocused and returned to a life of studies at the University of Missouri. He received an M.A./M.L.S in 1986 and began a new career as a librarian at Ward Edwards / James C. Kirkpatrick libraries at UCM. He took an early retirement on December 31, 2012 to pursue his lifelong dream of writing Science Fiction. His premier novel, "...Saves Nine", was first published in 2014 with hopes and dreams of many more to come. His favorite sub-genre of Science Fiction is Time-Travel, with Martian Colonies a close second. He has one son and three grandchildren.

I took a long time to read this because I wanted to savor it knowing that it is the last in the series and to carefully ponder all the complex twists, turns, characters and paradoxes.

There is no neat, tied-up-in-a-ribbon conclusion- characters we’ve come to are about experience pain and the impact of choices made. There is a bit of a deist-ex-machina but their presence and development makes sense in the context of the story.

Well done, Les, landing this plane with a satisfying conclusion, funny in-jokes and snark intact.

Oh and thanks especially for Geezer and Monty - representation matters. Well handled.

It 'is' about time.

After a long wait, we finally get to see the final book in this series.

The author does a good job of tying off all the loose threads in this sometimes convoluted storyline. The mystery character is finally revealed and the ending is a surprise that finishes the series in a satisfying way.

Time travel books are difficult to keep straight, but, after a slight speed bump in a previous episode that got a little off track for too long, the author recovered in a satisfying manner. A solid 4.5 star finish.

Very confusing

I genuinely like time travel stories but this one kelp changing with each character having two or three names jumping back and forth. I finished understanding where it was going.
