The historical time-travel science fiction novels and stories in the long-running "Company" saga by Kage Baker (1952-2010) center on the Zeus Corporation, a 24th-Century enterprise whose immortal cyborg agents canvas all of human history to preserve the cultural artifacts, extinct animals and plants, and treasures that would otherwise be lost – partly for their enduring cultural value, but mostly for profit. Three agents – Botanist Mendoza, Facilitator Joseph, and Literature Specialist Lewis – uncover a conspiracy within the Company that stretches through recorded history and touches on their own past. The trail leads to AD 2355 and the Silence, an event after which no Company agent has ever been able to travel. And beyond the Silence waits Dr. Zeus. The Company stories are by turns funny and deeply felt, and celebrated for their historical accuracy, romance, and tantalizing mysteries.
