Thurman (thurmanj) | 7 comments So this a book I started and stopped recently.
Sci-fi book, probably written in the past 10 years,
Spoilers:

Two spaceships are set up on each side of the wormhole.
Earth spaceships travel sublight to the wormhole and use the wormhole to go back in time (their origin timeline) in a new location.

The ships on either side of the wormhole are there to make sure that the trip is one way and no one comes from the past to the future. Ships aren't allowed to go from the past to the future. They don't want time paradoxes. The ship monitoring the future side of the wormhole came from the past to patrol.

The book starts on the bridge of a space ship on the future side of the wormhole. Small objects destroy the starship on the "past" side of the wormhole and come through the wormhole. The objects/ships go off in many directions.

Somewhere around here is when I stopped reading it. I have over 5000 books on my Kindle and I can't find it to read pick up where I left off.

Thanks In advance

"The settled universe is filled with terraformed worlds linked by timeshafts -- temporal wormholes in deep space. These timeshafts are the only way to travel the vast distances between the stars.
The Chronologic Patrol is charged with guarding the timeshaft wormholes and preventing time paradoxes at all costs. But one critical mission ends in disaster, turning Anton Koffield, captain of the "Upholder, " into a dark legend....
As ships carrying relief supplies to a crippled planet approach a timeshaft, they are mercilessly set upon by mysterious attackers -- their crews are murdered and the sanctity of time itself is at risk. "

It's funny I forgot I actually went to the library and took out the books. I usually only read books on my Kindle so when I couldn't find it I thought it was another book.
