Download or read book The Last Time Traveler written by Aaron J. Ethridge and published by Last Time Traveler. This book was released on 2017-02-04 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert is a time traveler. In point of fact, he's the last time traveler. He managed to snag that impressive title because when he comes from has no future. This, as you can imagine, makes it much easier to be the last of any number of things. The current lack of future is due to the mess all his predecessors, the previous time travelers, made of things. It's Robert's job to repair the damage they did in the hopes that this will jump-start time . Fortunately he's assembled the most brilliant team in history to do the job. At his disposal are the best hackers, mechanics, and doctors who ever lived. He and his elite band have to do their best to un-steal ancient artifacts, un-kidnap people of importance, and un-sell advanced technologies while doing as little damage to the timelines as possible. The Last Time Traveler is a rather unique sci-fi romantic comedy. In fact, it's more like a comedy romance sci-fi if you put things in the correct order of importance. The humor is in some ways rather outlandish and draws on pop-culture a good bit. And all the romance is PG-13. If you're even the slightest bit curious read a few sample pages. By the third or forth page you'll probably know whether this is your cup of tea or not. The style stands-out, no question. So, take a couple of minutes and read a few pages. You might just love it.
