Being the third novel to attempt to document the trials and tribulations of the
Transdimensional Authority
Think back to a time in your life that you made a
decision that you now regret. Oh, don’t be so coy – everybody has one.
Okay, maybe not Mother Teresa. Or, Bruce Springsteen. But, unless you’re Mother Teresa or Bruce Springsteen – and we’re pretty sure you’re not – you have been in that position. What if you could go back in time and
change that decision? What if you could make the other choice? Or, even
better, choose a third option that you didn’t even see at the time?
Wouldn’t you like to know how things would have turned out if only you
had done something different at that critical juncture in your life?
DON’T BOTHER.
Have you never read any science fiction time
travel stories? Don’t you know that they always end with either
dinosaurs becoming the dominant species on the planet or your
grandfather killing Hitler, causing you to be born with a speech
impediment and an irrational fear of listening to Born in the USA? Time branches are not something you can borrow books from – they are
paths to realities that you couldn’t anticipate and don’t want to live
in, and just try to get a decent corned beef on rye in any of them!
In Random Dingoes, the third Transdimensional Authority novel by Ira Nayman, investigators Noomi Rapier and Crash Chumley – who we first met in Welcome to the Multiverse (Sorry for the Inconvenience) and again in You Can’t Kill the Multiverse (But You Can Mess With its Head) – look into reports of a drug that allows people to travel between
universes without technological assistance. They methodically work their way up the drug ring’s chain of command and are just about to arrest
its leader when – time travel happens. With the assistance of Time
Agency agent Radames Trafshanian, Noomi and Crash must navigate
realities they hadn’t anticipated and which they wouldn’t want to live
in. But, can they find a decent corned beef on rye? You’ll have to read Random Dingoes to find out!
Praise for the Transdimensional Authority
“It’s difficult to sum [Welcome to the Multiverse (Sorry for
the Inconvenience)] up. Think Douglas Adams. Think Tom Holt.
Think Robert Rankin. Stir it all up with a little Spike Milligan and
you start to get close.” (The Mole, Our Book Reviews Web
site)
“[F]or those who enjoy full-throttle comedy, the kind that forces
audible guffaws in public places, I highly recommend you give Ira
Nayman’s You Can’t Kill the Multiverse (But You Can Mess With
its Head) a try.” (David Kilman, Amazing Stories Web
site)
