    The Plattner Story by H. G. Wells - ...Two of the boys, gesticulating, walked one after the other clean through him! Neither manifested the slightest consciousness of his presence. 
    We believe that this story, by our well-known author, which was written some years ago, constitutes the forerunner of all later stories in which the Fourth Dimension played a great role. Wells somehow has been captivated by the idea that there is such a thing as a fourth or higher plane. He does not seem to have changed his mind about this, for while the present story of his also brings in, again, a higher plane, supposedly existing alongside of our own. The Plattner Story is an extraordinarily well-written scientifiction tale, and is plausible as well as easily understandable, and will particularly appeal to those whose ideas of the Fourth Dimension are rather hazy.

    From cosmic destruction comes cosmic justice. 
    Dylan Townsend, Isaac Barret, and Dr. Kate Minter get to travel on their first summons across space and time with Evaran and M. The trip will take them to the Large Magellanic Cloud Galaxy in 40,322 AD, where they encounter a mystery with many moving parts. 
    The United Star Federation, or USF, is a human empire still healing from the aftermath of a visit by Antion, another cosmic being who killed the first Evaran’s gang. Antion murdered trillions of humans and shattered the USF into a loose coalition of eighty-one planetary system states. And they’re losing on all fronts. 
    Evaran and the gang decide to help the USF, but they’ve crossed the powerful Krellic United Corporation, or KUC, led by Azaric Krenzel, who wants the USF for himself. In order to save the USF, the gang will need to enlist allies from far and wide, such as a sentient planet and a machine race known as the Tellzik Ascendancy, which is unofficially at war with the KUC. 
    If they fail, then the USF is doomed.

    Halley, who covers house-sitting jobs for her self-absorbed mom, has Hollywood dreams but no real life. Until the day a job for her mom leads to a tumble back to London, 1598, where Halley meets a hot, rich earl named Edmund. And accidentally brings him to the 21st century. 
    Her dull summer just got a whole lot more interesting as she tells Edmund to keep his hands off tech he doesn't understand and a deadly sword he can't use in public. All while trying to keep from falling in for him, which definitely can't happen. 
    Now Halley's job is to get Edmund back where he belongs--while preventing a very scary professor from suspecting she messed with his time machine. If the evil scientist finds out about Edmund, Edmund's as good as dead. And what might that do to history? Plus, Halley would be next in line... 
    Summer's not boring anymore. Halley just needs to keep from getting killed, save Edmund (and history) before it's too late, and not fall for a guy who can't stick around. 
    No matter how much she want him to. 
    A THIEF IN TIME is a sweet, clean, time-travel romance with an HEA and no cliffhangers, packed with danger and historical detail.
