HALF PAST THE MONKEY'S MOON - RELOJANDO CRONICOS

By MJF on Thu, 19 Sep 2024

The first in a Time-Travel collection that imagines the most disruptive technology of all. Digging up the past to judge our predecessors is nothing new. A hardboiled detective undertakes an investigation into history.

Posted on Sun, 26 Nov 2023

Great description of this very tense undertaking Turlough! I've been crossing borders for years, never with anything to hide (except for our tequila runs to Mexico when I was in college, oh and the fireworks) but on some borders I feel as though...

Love the description of the Dark City
