new dogz, new trickz Tim Taylor’s new series hits the ground running, with snark and mystery and action. More snark. And he takes the cliched “let’s kill Hitler” time travel story and mixes in shenanigans to create something new under the sun.

“I drove on, and between the north and southbound lanes a construction crew worked under daylight-bright industrial lamps. I saw them through a gauzy fog of dust and strong light...they wore blood-red vests and hardhats and massive goggles, and as the road sank I saw that the workers were bone thin, with skeletal jaws and long teeth. They labored on platforms over gaping holes in the earth, and among the men, piled atop rickety pallets, lolled babies, piles of them, in ashy cerements. I could not tell whether the crew was excavating or burying them.”
― Matthew M. Bartlett, Gateways to Abomination
