I like the way the Chu-man handles time travel.

Things get Timey-wimey pretty quickly in Time Salvager: Time ripples, time lag, preserving the chronostream.

What's not to like about people from the far future plundering dead timelines for supplies in order to save the Earth? I was reading an interview with Wesley Chu around the time his second Tao book came out and he mentioned Time Salvager. Can he flee across time to escape them and help the woman he loves save the Earth? When chronman James Griffin-Mars breaks the first Time Law, he becomes the target of the very agency he's worked with for years. The series is currently in development at Sony Pictures Entertainment. He currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Paula, and two boys, Hunter and River.Ĭhu's newest novel, The Art of Prophecy, published by Del Rey Books, is the first book of The War Arts Saga, an Asian epic fantasy inspired by wuxia. He has acted in film and television, and has worked as a model and stuntman, and recently returned from summiting Kilimanjaro. Robert Kirkman tapped Chu to write The Walking Dead: Typhoon, the first Walking Dead novel set in Asia.Ĭhu is an accomplished martial artist and a former member of the Screen Actors Guild. He is the coauthor of the Eldest Curses series with Cassandra Clare. His debut, The Lives of Tao, won the American Library Association's Alex Award, and was a finalist for the Goodreads Choice Awards for Best Science Fiction. He was the 2015 winner of the Astounding Award for Best New Writer. Wesley Chu is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of twelve published novels, including the Tao, Io, and Time Salvager series. Remaining free means losing themselves in the wild and poisonous wastes of Earth, and discovering what hope may yet remain for humanity's home world. Against his training and his common sense, James brings her back to the future with him, saving her life, but turning them both into fugitives. On a final mission that is to secure his retirement, James meets an intriguing woman from a previous century, scientist Elise Kim, who is fated to die during the destruction of an oceanic rig.

James Griffin-Mars is a chronman-a convicted criminal recruited for his unique psychological makeup to undertake the most dangerous job there is: missions into Earth's past to recover resources and treasure without altering the timeline. Most chronmen never reach old age, and James is reaching his breaking point. In a future when Earth is a toxic, abandoned world and humanity has spread into the outer solar system to survive, the tightly controlled use of time travel holds the key maintaining a fragile existence among the other planets and their moons. Time Salvager: a fast-paced time travel adventure from Wesley Chu, the award-winning author of of The Lives of Tao.
