Falling Through Time is J. Hayes Hurley’s fifth hexalogy. It the first novel, ‘Maxie Howell Versus Clock Time, ‘ a young man brought up in the late Vaudeville days, believes he can pass through space, or even out of it. But can he defeat time? In the second novel, Missing Persons, ‘ a struggling New York detective uses a time device to solve a case. In the third novel, ‘Shell Game, ‘ the moving now of time changes places to fool us, but can it outrun burning flesh? In the fourth novel, ‘Aether in Time, ‘ the fifth element of Aristotle shifts its locale from space to time under the guidance of a classics librarian. In the fifth novel, ‘The Man who Fell Through Time, ‘ the narrator can feel himself falling through time. In the sixth novel, ‘The Third Messenger, ‘ the question is, do we really want to transcend space and time, or not?
