Greek gods are posing as humans and pulling humanity's strings in this mosaic novel about time travel, alternate worlds, and the making of a president. The Time Rangers, Apollo's chosen servants, are in charge of preserving the peace and harmony along the Time Stream, the pathway between various worlds and times, but Apollo has given them a new task--to protect Timothy Macauley, the chosen one who must become the president of the United States or else witness the destruction of humankind. Standing in the Rangers's way are other gods: Mercury, who's working his wiles in the world of public relations; Diana, cruising New York City in the guise of an NYPD detective; Pluto, who is in the process of grooming his successor; and Dionysus, who has caused the annihilation of an alternate world. Nonstop action keeps the story rolling from the 1950s to the present day, through this world and others. The new and expanded edition features an introduction by Jeff Ford and a brand new story of the Time Rangers!

Industry Reviews

"Time Rangers is a wide-canvas panorama of a novel, full of strange and wonderful characters, action and incident, invention and history; and it is a bringing-together of an eclectic set of ideas and science-fictional tropes not typically associated with one another. The mixture, which might have resulted in a mish-mash of narrative in the hands of other writers, results in a strange, multi-textured, but definitely integrated whole. This is thanks in large part to Bowes' skill at presenting fictional events through the medium of an omniscient narrator, and his almost uncanny ability to paint figures and incidents on a large canvas, but in small strokes that turn out to be telling, and necessary, and true."
