Time Shifters by Chris Grine

4.0

This story had a surprising amount of humor, considering it starts with Luke's brother dying in an accident. There were several times I laughed out loud reading the story, especially when they were in the bug world. The bad guys were obviously bad guys. Not only were they dead creatures, but there mean to each other. They kept blaming other party members for their mistakes to their boss to try to shift blame. Otherwise, it's a pretty standard time/dimension-travel story. At the end, Luke revisits the first scenes and changes them for the better. His brother survives, but now he can no longer be part of that time stream. He heads off with his new friends without even thinking about the fact that he's leaving his family behind. But there are adventures to be had!
