Download or read book Time Bent written by S. H. Marpel and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time haunted her. It didn't do what it was ""supposed to"" when she was around. It ran forward, backwards, sideways. Sometimes time helped her solve her problems, sometimes it made them worse. For a lovely young woman, you'd think there would be young men lined up to talk to her at any gathering. But she stayed away from them - to protect them from her curse. What would be the good of a comittment like that if the other person was going to age too fast or too slow - or live forever haunted with the thought of a long lost love? Or was this time-problem contagious? Were other people at risk because of her - or could she pass it onto her children? Life wasn't all that safe, just because you could bend time anyway you wanted.

Book excerpt: You'd think that after a couple of thousand years, I'd be able to find my angel wings when I wanted them. Pretty hard to misplace, if you think about it at all. But when I woke up to go to work this morning, they weren't there. Not in my closet, not hanging on the bedpost, and certainly not on my shoulders where they always had been. Sure, I was always able to appear to humans without them. But just because they couldn't see them, didn't mean they were gone. Of course, that wasn't the bad part. Along with the wings, I'd lost all my ""magic"" powers. So I was basically stuck on earth like any other human. But, no, I wasn't going to test whether I was still bascially immortal. I'm not stupid, even if maybe forgetful. And there was something important I was supposed to remember. Something about saving the world - but of course, this was lost to me right now - too...

Book excerpt: When someone sends boulder-sized rocks down to planet Earth from the moon, they approach like meteors. On the right trajectory, they don't burn up in the atmosphere, but can come down with the force of a nuclear blast. Our tiny outpost of sentient shape-shifting wolves and escapees from the slave-labor moon colonies had caused a stir up there. They probably still didn't figure out how we managed to help all those people disappear, cross 250,000 miles of space, and wind up on Earth - healthy and smiling in the videos we sent back. But they did figure out where our headquarters was - and targeted it with a string of flaming rock-meteors, all falling in a straight line toward our little valley. If we evacuate in time, we can still avoid that impact. But all it really means is: Earth and the Moon are at war - and they have the better weapons. Or so they think... Get Your Copy Now.

Book excerpt: An old clock tower, with an unsolved death - that the ghost still haunted. Once a year she appeared. Right on the calendar date of her death. Not that she wasn't also seen during the day, some rumors said, but that was a real person. A flesh version. Who was also haunted by the mysterious death. The mystery was who pushed the young woman - or did she simply slip? Why the lights in the upper bell tower - and why three of them? Too many for a single person to carry... For hundreds of years, the clock never moved - frozen at the time of her death, it was said. Yet the bell still tolled once a year. Two minuted before her anniversary - of dying. Get Your Copy Now.

Book excerpt: When the hamburgers all disappeared, along with the buns I was warming, I thought I was seeing things. But when my spatula went through the cast-iron grill top - I had to let it go out of reflex. No way was I going after it - I'd been burned too many times. It wasn't like I had a choice after that. Because the grill itself dropped out through the bottom of the rolling coach we were cooking out of that summer. I looked up at Ham, my order-taker, partner, and lover - only to see her fall through the floor as well. A look of shock and trying to say something, but frozen in time. Then the coach disappeared, and I fell with it - but only as far as the pavement it used to be parked on. I could see the asphalt beneath my feet at least. Until it turned to some sort of foamy waves lapping on a beach I'd never seen before. Green hard-packed sand. Green water. And a long white line that went down this beach like it was some sort of dual-lane highway... Get Your Copy Now.
