What if all you had to do to make your dreams come true was violate the laws of the universe?That's not just a philosophical question Eddie Royce has to answer. It's a choice he has to make when the most famous science fiction writer of the 1930s goes missing and his unscrupulous publisher becomes convinced that Eddie knows all of the older writer's secrets--not just the secret of where he's gone, but the secret of how he's traveled in time.Until now, Eddie's fooled himself into thinking he's got the system figured out, "borrowing" plots from Shakespeare and rewriting them as space operas to make a name for himself in the pulps. But when he finds out that Chester Blackwood--his idol and inspiration--has been cheating the system in ways Eddie could never have dreamed of, the hack science fiction writer finds himself in the middle of a plot that his pulp readers would never have imagined.Now he has to do all he can to save himself--and Blackwood's beautiful daughter--from the powerful figures who all want Blackwood's secret. And violating the laws of the universe might just be the least of Eddie's problems.… (more)

Book description
What if all you had to do to make your dreams come true was violate the laws of the universe?

That's not just a philosophical question Eddie Royce has to answer. It's a choice he has to make when the most famous science fiction writer of the 1930s goes missing and his unscrupulous publisher becomes convinced that Eddie knows all of the older writer's secrets--not just the secret of where he's gone, but the secret of how he's traveled in time.

Until now, Eddie's fooled himself into thinking he's got the system figured out, "borrowing" plots from Shakespeare and rewriting them as space operas to make a name for himself in the pulps. But when he finds out that Chester Blackwood--his idol and inspiration--has been cheating the system in ways Eddie could never have dreamed of, the hack science fiction writer finds himself in the middle of a plot that his pulp readers would never have imagined.

Now he has to do all he can to save himself--and Blackwood's beautiful daughter--from the powerful figures who all want Blackwood's secret. And violating the laws of the universe might just be the least of Eddie's problems.
