Legacy is complete at long last, and Chronicles has been reworked as the prologue book it was always meant to be. I’ve removed the Illegal Operation articles since those are pretty much Eye Lazor Beams territory now. A new SpaceTime book will be up soon, focusing on the continued adventures of James Carda and his allies. We’re moving forward (finally)!
Welcome... to a world of modern fantasy.
The world of The SpaceTime Chronicles is very much like our own, but also remarkably different in a few respects. One such aberration is the prevalence of magic. Of course, while magic exists in this alternate version of Earth, it’s not widely acknowledged as such. Much of the magic in this world is generally explained away as a trick of the mind, an illusion, or very advanced technology.
Still, there are those who know the truth: other worlds exist beyond their own. And it is possible to travel amongst these worlds, if one is born with a gift. The two gifts are known, rather poetically, as the Emerald Flame and the Amethyst Spark. Those who inherit the former are called “striders,” and they can bend space to their will. Those with the latter are named “chronomancers,” and they control the flow of time itself. As a rule, no individual has both gifts.
There is one exception, however. One person born to each generation, throughout all the worlds in existence, has the ability to control both time and space.
That person is known as the Strider of Chronos.
And you’re about to meet him.
