In the far future, mankind lives safe and secure behind the Chronos Ring – an automatic defense system that encircles the area of space occupied by human beings. The Ring keeps out all of humanity’s enemies – in particular, a vicious race of reptilians known as the Parsnaak.

On the outer fringe of human-occupied space is the planet Muse, an entire world dedicated and established as a colossal museum – a storehouse of antiquities and relics from the ancient histories of both men and aliens. There, Ian Lotus, a man with his own mysterious past, has chosen to live in deliberate obscurity, harboring secrets that could reshape mankind’s destiny.

Now, the impossible has happened: the Chronos Ring has been breached – rendered inert – and Lotus finds himself no longer able to hide in the shadows as he becomes the object of a massive interplanetary manhunt. However, his problems go well beyond simply being the most wanted man in the galaxy. There’s also the approaching Parsnaak invasion fleet to deal with, as well as an enigmatic, extra-dimensional being of immense power who, for reasons unknown, wants Lotus dead.

WOW! Another Fantastic Series from this author

Reviewed in Australia on 31 March 2020

Verified Purchase

I have submitted this review after listening to the audiobook of this title.

I have experienced most of this writer's works, and this particular episode is again one that excels in the ability to draw your full attention throughout the complete tale.

Yes, Earth and other planets are again facing annihilation, and again a hero emerges, one that had helped in times past. As conflicting reports are sorted out, the hero and his small crew, fight against an almost unbeatable foe.

Not nuanced enough for me

Reviewed in Australia on 15 September 2019

Verified Purchase

Though I did enjoy the overall storyline I was a little disappointed in some of the dialogue. It needed a nuanced telling and in this it was a little too much about he did this she did that and so lost credibility. The interactions between the long lost son of a god was bland in its rendition and it spoiled some of the better dialogue that preceded it. I would probably have a read of number two when available to see if the storyline got fleshed out more.

Fast paced science fun

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 September 2017

A thoroughly enjoyable, fast paced science fiction tale of a man bridging time and using his genius to save the galaxy.
Even though he has lived for eons he doesn't know everything. His friends are not as they seem, but his family are even worse.
It is unique enough to keep you turning the pages and wanting more.

As a new reader of Mr. Hardman, I found this first book to be a great starter, an easy read and understand. Looking forward to reading book # 2!

Not too serious

Reviewed in the United States on 4 July 2016

Verified Purchase

Chronos Ring is one of those ''blend'' books between Science Fiction and Fantasy, of which i'm not really a
big fan of. I thought the monsters/aliens were a little childishly described in a sort of way. Too easy to come
up with, sort of. But i could overlook that stuff for the overall story. Though the story isn't too serious on itself,
i chuckled while reading some of the pages. There's not so much to say about it honestly, but i guess i thought
it was okay atleast.

Robert Shuler

mild diversion with mythological plots given a pseudo-SF context

Reviewed in the United States on 30 March 2017

Verified Purchase

A modernized and updated version of the alien-father hero character, which acknowledges similarity to the mythological heroes one of whose parents would be a deity. Ian has used mythological aliases in the past, such as Gilgamesh. [this is not really spoilers, it's laid out mostly within the available preview, though less succinctly] There is some confusion over who is an ally vs an enemy. The character development is modest, as the novel is mostly action-adventure. Ian is prepared for anything with safe-houses here and there, so the author is obliged to invent greater villains to pressure him.

The Chronos Ring is preposterous technology, so much so I'd classify this more as fantasy than science fiction. The extra-dimensional travels (which are more clear in the sequel) also prompt this classification. But if you accept the near-fantasy elements, it is a not terribly serious but enjoyable read.

[Spoiler] Don't expect too much from the overall plot, which becomes clear only near the end. It is basically a royal sibling feud.
