Beschreibung des Verlags
There's a theory that death isn't the end—just a transfer to another universe.
For most people, the transition comes with a clean slate. New life. No memories. No baggage.
Tom Two-Dan $mith (sic) doesn't get that luxury.
Every time he dies, he remembers everything.
In his latest reality shift, Tom wakes up as the head of a vast, wildly successful corporation… famous for doing absolutely nothing anyone can define. Worse still, neither can its employees.
When the entire Board of Directors meets an abrupt and suspiciously convenient end, Tom is forced to rebuild leadership from a pool of deeply questionable candidates: a psychopathic warrior race, a genius tech prodigy, a former Magus now trapped in a ball of fur, an overly devoted secretary, a stubborn director who refuses to leave, a seductive wildcard, and a female android with her own agenda.
And that's just the start of his problems.
The Temporal Conduct Authority—guardians of time, space, and bureaucratic irritation—are closing in. They don't believe in Tom's "death is a doorway" theory, and they're determined to send him back to where he belongs: properly dead.
Meanwhile, his old ally the Magus is battling a bizarre Docu-virus that causes uncontrollable hair growth, the Skagans are fighting a losing battle against a ruthless intergalactic tax system, and reality itself seems to be unravelling at the edges.
As timelines collide and chaos escalates, Tom must outwit assassins, out-manage lunatics, and somehow stay alive long enough to die again.
Because in Tom's case… death is only the beginning.
