Time Patrol Series 01- 04 by Poul Anderson
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.0Mb
Overview: The discovery of time travel means that everything we know, anyone we know, might not only vanish, but never even have existed. Against that possibility stand the men and women of the Time Patrol, dedicated to preserving the history they know and protecting the future from fanatics, terrorists, and would-be dictators who would remold the shape of reality to suit their own purposes.

01 Guardians of Time (ed. Jim3692)
HARD TIMES. That’s what leads Manson Everard to answer an ad offering "high pay and foreign travel for men and women with military experience." But compared to where – and when – he’s going, "hard times" in the 20th-century U.S.A. are easy!

03 The Year of the Ransom (ed. Jim3692)
Manse Everard, a Time Patrol agent, searches through time for scholar Stephen Tamberly and Tamberly’s renegade conquistador companion, who is planning to alter history.
SF veteran Anderson revives his Time Patrol series for this brisk, intricate tale of crime and pursuit across the centuries. The trouble starts when bandits from the far future stage a raid on the fabulous ransom that Francisco Pizarro demanded in 1533 for the Inca Emperior Atahuallpa. In the confusion, a resourceful conquistador steals a time machine, maroons a Time Patrol agent in the distant past and ends up kidnapping the agent’s niece in 1985.
Anderson’s mosaic of interlocking episodes allows readers to fit the puzzle together for themselves. He also has some thought-provoking ideas on our own cultural myth of historical progress and on the foolishness and danger of underestimating people from other cultures or eras.
04 The Shield of Time
Manse Everard, an unattached agent of the Time Patrol charged with protecting humanity’s transcendent future against those who would alter Time itself, and Wanda Tamberley, a cataloger of natural history, join together to save the stability of history.
