<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Only Pilot X can save the universe, but will he have to destroy his own people to do it?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Tom Merritt's time-bending space adventure had me hooked from the start." <b>--Gary Whitta, screenwriter of <i>Star Wars: Rogue One</i> and <i>The Book of Eli</i>, author of <i>Abomination</i></b> <p/>What if a time traveler lived in a world where disrupting the timeline could destroy everything in the universe -- everything but himself? <p/>Pilot X is Ambassador of the Alendans, a race with the ability to move through space and time as guardians of the timeline. Locked in ongoing conflict with the Sensaurians, an organic hive mind that can send messages in thought throughout its own history, and the Progons, a machine race who can communicate backwards in time, Pilot X finally manages to create peace among the three races. <p/> But when Pilot X discovers that a secret dimensional war fought in hidden parts of spacetime threatens the fabric of the universe itself, he faces unseen enemies and a deeper conspiracy, bringing him to the ultimate choice: erase the existence of all three races, including his own people, or to let the universe be destroyed.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Time-travel enthusiasts will love this action-packed, labyrinthine ride through time and space. Merritt delivers, putting his mastery of the genre on display. This space opera is the sort of vintage sf that you settle into and can't put down, well thought out and beautifully executed. Intrigue abounds." <b>--<i>Booklist</i></b> <p/> "A retro space opera...for readers who enjoy seasoning their planetary romps with a dash of cynicism." <b><i>--Publishers Weekly</i></b> <p/> "Tom Merritt's time-bending space adventure had me hooked from the start. Inventive, stylish, and fun!" <b>--Gary Whitta, screenwriter of <i>Star Wars: Rogue One</i> and <i>The Book of Eli</i>, author of <i>Abomination</i></b> <p/> "<i>Pilot X</i> is a captivating story about time travel for sci-fi fans who want something more than the usual bending time & space trope. I was so engrossed by Tom Merritt's book that I may have lost track of time reading it, which seems like the best way to enjoy a time travel tale." <b>--Bonnie Burton, Author of <i>The Star Wars Craft Book</i> and <i>Planets in Peril</i></b> <p/> "<i>Pilot X</i> is not just mind bending but mind breaking. A brilliant heart-racing sci-fi adventure...an absolute playground for lovers of time travel." <b>--Charlie Hopkins, Fantasy Faction</b> <p/> "Full of timey-wimey goodness! Merritt has created a fascinating world that you'll want to get lost in." <b>--Veronica Belmont, co-host of Sword & Laser</b> <p/> "Tom Merritt has a wonderful ability to imagine a distant, yet plausible future filled with stellar mysteries and human deceit." <b>--Andrew Mayne, author of the ITW Award-nominated <i>Jessica Blackwood</i> series</b> <p/> "The kind of high-concept science fiction that you just don't see anymore. Merritt brings it all back with a tale that fires the imagination and makes you look at the future in new ways." <b>--J-F. Dubeau, author of <i>The Life Engineered</i> and <i>A God in the Shed</i></b> <p/><br>
