Temporal - by Stephanie Williams (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

From acclaimed writer Stephanie Williams (Nubia & The Amazons, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur: Wreck and Roll, The Raven Boys graphic novel adaptation) and rising comic artist Asiah Fulmore (Amethyst: Princess Of Gemworld and Batman: The Brave and The Bold) comes a thrilling new limited series about family, identity, and the dangerous allure of who we used to be. A retired time thief risks everything to steal a vintage gaming console for her son, accidentally reawakening dangerous forces that could collapse all realities, forcing her to confront her past to save her family's future.

Once upon a time, Savannah and Marcus were the most skilled temporal thieves in the business, slipping through history to acquire rare artifacts. That was before they settled down, had a son, and built a quiet life together.

Ten years later, as their son Harper celebrates his birthday, Savannah questions whether suburban bliss is enough. When Harper's disappointment over a replica gaming console triggers memories of her former life, Savannah makes a decision that could jeopardize everything she and Marcus have built. Against her husband's knowledge and her best friend's warnings, Savannah steps back into the portal for "one last job" - a simple mission to retrieve an original gaming console from the past.

But nothing stays simple for long in a business where time is money.
