FROM FAR IN THE FUTURE COMES A HIDEOUS WARNING OF DESTRUCTION.But the message is not clear, and the result is a mad scramble to change the present—all possible presents—in order to avoid the future. For the recipients of the message are not humans but Kriths, lizardlike beings from a parallel Timeline.Using machines that move sideways in time, a band of dedicated mercenaries and Krith leaders cut a wide swath through countless Timelines. It is a brutal and bloody struggle that has no end—until one of their strongest fighters begins to ask questions the Kriths would rather not answer.

Aliens have meddled with time, creating countless parallel worlds in the process. But as Eric Mathers desperately skudds through a dazzling array of Timelines, they crumble around him, The prophecy of a catastrophe in the far future is coming true now! Eric's survival depends on two things. He must follow the directions of a phantom force known only as the Shadowy Man. And he must travel to a parallel Earth in search of a true time machine. But to obtain it, Eric becomes the general of an army -- of his own clones. And that is only the beginning.
