Book excerpt: An immortal diviner must navigate the multi-verse, as she joins forces with a Time Guardian to save her siblings from the clutches of a diabolical warlock wanted for crimes against spacetime in forty-two dimensions. Rainey El-Sullivan is a card-reader known as the Seer of Blandytown. She lives in an antique farmhouse in Monotheiston, DM-1, where technology is outlawed and superstition reigns. She is immortal, due to a vaccine given to her at birth by her father—the notorious doctor and Time Commander Carron Sullivan. Although she has been alive for 126 years, Rainey’s body has been genetically programmed to cease the aging process at age twenty-five. She agreed to be the caretaker of the family home, but after spending a hundred years in a territory deprived of modern advancements and forward-thinking, she has grown lonely and yearns for a more adventurous existence. Julian Cato is a Time Guardian in the employ of Commander Sullivan. Time Guardians are immortal, highly trained specialty soldiers capable of navigating all 55 dimensions in the MDV (Multi-Dimension-Verse). They are the keepers of time and technology for humanity, but are mostly hidden and incognito. On some dimensions, they are believed to be mythical. When Julian unexpectedly shows up on her doorstep with amnesia, Rainey has no choice but to return him to her father on the Outer-Dimensional Station. The Commander sends her on a mission to babysit Julian as he apprehends an escaped Gilladragon, and Rainey tries to resist her growing attraction to the handsome Time Guardian. Before they can complete the mission, they inadvertently rouse the enmity of Tony Molinaro—a fugitive warlock who wants to capture the dinosaur-like creature and use its godly powers for his own nefarious purposes. Tony kidnaps Rainey and her three siblings, threatening to kill them if the Commander does not give in to his demands. Can Rainey survive a deadly chase through spacetime and the fifty-five dimensions, while attempting to help Julian repair his fragmented psyche? Or will the warlock’s diabolical magic destroy her family and everything she holds dear?
