4.0 out of 5 stars "Time Patrol" meets "Hammer's Slammers". Recommended.
An interesting look at not just time travel and "timecops" but also the future of conflict in a world where technology has made nonlethal weaponry feasible. A good addition to your SF library

This review is from: Arc Riders (Kindle Edition)
DAVID DRAKE HAS TRIED A DIFFERENT TOPIC IN HIS WRITING. I FIND STORIES ABOUT TIME TRAVEL NOT TO BE VERY CONVINCING. DRAKE HAS NOT SUCCEEDED. ALTERNATED FUTURES CAUSED BY FUTURE TIME TRAVELERS DOES NOT FIT WELL. FIGHT SCENES ARE NOT WORTHY OF HAMMERS SLAMMERS. ON THE WHOLE I AM HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME TO FINISH THIS BOOK. I THINK THAT HE HAS LOST THE KNACK FOR WRITING GOOD FICTION. THIS IS HIS SECOND BOOK THAT I CAN NOT RECOMMEND.
