The Dust of Ages

700 years in the future, the Old West meets the 25th century

In 1867, Cullen 'Boone' Barrett was the most feared Regulator in the New Mexico Territory — until a blinding arc of blue lightning swallowed him whole. He woke up 700 years in the future, in a world of gleaming starships, alien alliances, and quantum weapons. The badge still on his chest. The six-gun still at his hip.

Now, stranded in the 25th century, Boone must navigate a galaxy-spanning conspiracy that threatens to unravel the fabric of time itself. With only his frontier instincts, an unlikely alliance with a 25th-century combat operative named Samantha 'Deuce' Cordell, and a stolen time-drive, he has one chance to find his way home — if home still exists.

But the deeper he travels through the corridors of time, the more he begins to wonder: what is home, when every age is equally yours?
