Mankind stands at a crossroad in the 21st Century. He must become more than mere flesh and blood or go the way of the dinosaur. Global warming, ice ages, asteroid hits, and other horrendous events inevitably will occur. Is man ready to step outside his fragile body and meet what is real? Regardless, given that man makes the correct choices, the next few centuries probably will be the last in which what man sees in the mirror will be totally recognizable. Soon he will learn to transfer his mind into whatever form and substance may be required to survive cataclysmic events, endure the rigors of space travel, and colonize other worlds, all of which are now hostile to him. In"Time Does Not Exist," scientist and 24th Century 'Sabertop,' Shaoping Chen, makes man's first successful attempt at time travel. She arrives in the 21st Century, but before she can return to her own era, she becomes involved in a murder and the disappearance of someone important to her mission. Catching the killer and rectifying a mistake all depend on the nonexistence of time.
