As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Logan Yarbrough is a seasoned warrior. He is an anomaly in the great city-state called the New Republic which has for centuries strived to eliminate hate, violence, and unhappiness. But there’s a problem. The human race is slowly dying for lack of challenges. Survival and overcoming risk is a part of human DNA. Without challenges, the human spirit fades and then flickers. In the year 2146, the number one cause of death is suicide. That's where time travel comes in. Logan and hundreds of other warriors train in ancient combat arts and travel to distant battlefields to test their skills. But while Logan roams through time the New Republic is facing collapse. A new movement has risen to threaten the utopian society and the Time Warriors find they must exercise their violent talents in the present.
