(Preliminary because I've only read the first four chapters so far)
"Time Twist" is the first installment in Plasticat's multi-novel Twin Kcors series (which also includes "The Traveler"). He's set up an intriguing mystery around a time machine, its inventor, and the agents who are trying to stop him from doing something dangerous. What is the inventor trying to do that has half a dozen secret agents coming after him? Does the time machine really work? As the mystery unfolds, Plasticat takes his characters through some very well-written action scenes. The tricky part with action scenes is keeping the action moving smoothly and quickly while making it clear what's going on, and Plasticat has done a great job with this. I was on the edge of my seat (not just a cliche - it's true!) while reading the chase scene.
There are several more chapters of "Time Twist" posted (see Plasticat's link in the "Where are You?" section) but I'm not sure if the story is finished yet. I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next!
EDITED TO ADD: I finished reading "Time Twist" (which is complete.) It's filled with suspense and plot twists, and ends with a subtle and astonishing revelation that ties it into the rest of the Twin Kcors series.
I am really looking forward to reading more of Plasticat's Twin Kcors!
