John Chantry has been training Space Rangers recruits, but he is ready to change his life and leave the Rangers. When he receives a proposition to become Professor Whitmore Emerson's bodyguard, he is more than happy to accept it. But this job might not be as ordinary and relaxing as he thought.

Nice review. "Time Before Time" by Dan DuBose depicts the alternate creations and entities coexisting with the Earth. The author creatively weaved themes of space , career and humanity through the lens of John Chantry. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.

My interest is piqued by your brief and vivid description of the plot. I wonder what awaits John in his new job although I'm not a fan of sci-fi novels. Congratulations on BOTD!!

In "Time Before Time," retired Space Ranger John Chantry seeks a quieter life as a bodyguard for Professor Whitmore Emerson. Surprises at Emerson Barn lead to an unexpected twist in his seemingly ordinary job. The book explores alternate creations and interconnected planets, emphasizing teamwork and the repercussions of actions. It offers an immersive and imaginative experience. Must read for sci-fi fiction lovers. This is a very informative and honest review. Thank you.

Dear Veronica Hunter,
Thank you for your perceptive review of" Time Before Time." Your disquisition of the book's themes and narrative rudiments truly highlights its witching nature. The transition of John Chantry from the Elite Special Forces to a sentry, along with the unanticipated twists he encounters, promises an engaging read. Your analysis of the book's disquisition of alternate creations and the interconnectedness of globes adds depth to its narrative. The emphasis on cooperation, moxie, and pictorial scene-erecting further enhances its appeal. Your recommendation speaks volumes, and I am agitated to dive into this imaginative trip.

Best Regards,
Book Reviewer 22

The book has an intriguing and captivating sound.
I really enjoy these science fiction novels because they get me to think on how big our universe is and how small our planet and civilization are in relation to it.

It must be thrilling to find a job that pays you four times what you used to pay, but is there something fishy about it? I must read Time Before Time to find out.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the book "Time Before Time" by Dan DuBose. I’m curious to see how the authors explore the history and the future of Earth and its alien visitors. I’m definitely going to add this book to my reading list. Congrats to the author on #BOTD!
