Time: The Semi-Final Frontier

Book excerpt: DEEP SPACE, DEEP TROUBLE. The man they call Diego was a tough hombre looking to escape a jam. But the time machine he found took him out of the frying pan and into the future. Now he's gone from the wide-open spaces to outer space--in the 26th century, as the starship Angus goes to war… Before you can say, "Beam me up, Scotty," Diego's risking his neck against a female terrorist known as the Space Avenger--and the weirdest life-forms he's ever seen outside a bottle of bad whiskey. But then again, they've never seen anything like the man they call Diego!
