Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

In Baker's fast-paced new Company novel, the sequel to The Life of the World to Come (2004), Alec Checkerfield shares his cyborg body uncomfortably with the Recombinant personalities of 19th-century spy Edward Bell-Fairfax and 16th-century scholar Nicholas Harpole. Each man, in his own time, worked for—and was betrayed by—Dr. Zeus Inc. (aka the Company), which uses time travel to recover and hoard important historical artifacts. In their quest to destroy the Company, Checkerfield and his unlikely partners must rescue Mendoza, an immortal female cyborg and Company botanist each fell in love with in his own time, from a Company torture facility. Though Mendoza herself is more plot device than character, Baker invests the book with plenty of inventive energy and absurdity. (Sept.)

From Booklist

Mendoza's three lovers inhabit the body of one--Alec--uneasily, for all they agree on is loving Mendoza. Alec's pirate AI, Captain Morgan, aims to rescue Mendoza from the Company's prison for immortals, where, although it is nearly impossible to kill an inmate, the guard has been persistent, and Mendoza has been almost destroyed. Still, she is healed, albeit with extremely significant gaps in her memory. Between Alec's enemies chasing the rescue party and Morgan's daring plans leading to many Company facilities and tantalizing information about the cloning program that created Alec, a lovely addition to the Company saga.
