The Time Bender

Lafayette O'Leary seriesNext:The World Shuffler(1970) →

"Draftsmen can't fight dragons. Then again, that's usually no problem—they generally don't have to. But Lafayette O'Leary does. When an accidental overdose of self-hypnosis wrenches him out of the dull (but safe) Mrs. MacGlint's Clean Rooms and Board and deposits him in the feudal, bedragoned world of Artesia, it takes him a little while to catch on, even with the attentions of the beautiful Princess Adoranne. Then he decides that he likes this new life of his—except for the part where he's supposed to get killed..."—Pg. [4] of cover.
