THE DEADLIEST PREDATORS
OF THREE SEPARATE EONS
Captain Andy Blacklock was overseeing the change of shifts at the state of Illinois' maximum-security prison when the world outside was suddenly ripped. They thought it was an earthquake until they found that the Mississippi River had disappeared, along with all signs of civilization. Then the sun came up—in the wrong direction. And a dinosaur came by and scratched its hide against the wall of the prison ...
Something had thrown the prison back in time millions of years. And they were not alone. Other humans from periods centuries, even millennia, apart had also been dropped into the same time. Including a band of murderous conquistadores. But the prison had its own large population of murderers. They couldn't be turned loose, but what else could be done with them
Death walked outside the walls, human savagery was planning to break loose inside, and Stephens and the other men and women of the prison's staff were trapped in the middle.

Product ReviewGreat read. Found it hard to tear my self away once I got started. Nice to see how things happen in uptime and how it ties into Grantville. There isnt any one strong leader that stands out but it seams to be more of people of different backgrounds coming together to help each other, not one to rule them all.

Product ReviewIt was natural for me to wonder how this would compare against 1632 (which is one of my all-time favourites). I am happy to say that although I found 1632 to be more engrossing, Time Spike is entertaining enough after the first few chapters that I would recommend this novel for all 1632-series fans.
One of the paths not explored in 1632 was what happened in the original Earth that Grantville left behind....this novel looks into that when a similar situation occurs.
Another interesting thing in this novel is the lack of really strong leaders who happen to be good thinkers, AND hard enough to do what needs to be done (leaders in the caliber of Sterns) - It is to the authors' credit that they show us how average joes behave when thrust into strange situations and still manage to provide us an entertaining read in the process.Posted on
