No Brother, No Friend

AN INVASION FROM SPACE IN THE YEAR 4000 A.D. WILL WIPE OUT ALL LIFE… That terrifying message is received by the Kriths, strange creatures from an alternate Earth. And so the Timeliners are formed: fierce commandos that skudd through alternate worlds, battling the present in hopes of changing the future. But how honorable, really, are the Kriths’ motives? This question and others gnawed at Eric Mathers each time he killed for the Kriths. Such disloyalty brought him a death sentence from his former masters. Now Eric is hiding in a parallel line, waging the war he is so used to. But this time he kills for semifeudal powers invading the North American continent. His enemies are men…and sometimes not. If the answers are here, Eric will find them—or die trying. * First published in 1976 by Doubleday Cover illustration by Ken Barr This 1979 Playboy Press Paperbacks edition is revised.
