About the Books: Readers follow Max and the St Mary’s team through history, turning from danger to lighthearted misadventure. In An Argumentation of Historians, January 1536—the day of Henry VIII’s infamous jousting accident—becomes a catalyst for decisions that ripple through time. The historians are there in force, recording, arguing, and debating every turn of fate, while their own lives tangle with the consequences of their bold choices. A chance encounter between Max and the Time Police sets in motion a plan that could alter the balance of power across years. The stakes are personal as well as historical: Max’s private life is already tumultuous, with Leon recovering and Matthew safe in the future, but the proposed strategy could threaten everything they’ve built. Taylor’s signature blend of fast-paced action and wry humor keeps the momentum high as alternate timelines collide and the team navigates moral gray zones. Fans will relish sharp banter, clever plot twists, and the satisfying sense that history itself is flammable when pushed by a crew who refuse to sit still. The tone remains buoyant yet poignant, balancing danger with warmth as friendships are tested and loyalties are examined against the vast unknown of time. The narrative depth grows as historical details intersect with personal stakes, inviting readers to question what history remembers and what heroes must forget. Timelines bend under pressure.
