Book 4 of 6: BAD TIMES

See all formats and editions

They left a man behind. 100,000 years behind.

Another chapter in the popular time travel thriller series Bad Times by bestselling author Chuck Dixon. Lee, Jimbo and the rest of the hard-fighting Rangers go back to prehistoric Nevada to find the man they left behind on their first mission.

This epic quest brings them into dangerous encounters with giant predators long extinct. But the most dangerous of all these animals is man.

Back in the present, one of their team is abducted by a mysterious billionaire seeking to grow his fortunes with the use of the scientific miracle known as the Tauber Tube.

Also, their benefactor from the future shares a startling secret.

The millennium-spanning saga by the author of Levon's Trade and Winterworld: The Mechanic's Song continues here!

“Chuck is a damn good writer who is really good at hooking you, giving you fun characters, and telling you one hell of an adventure story.”
Larry Correia, Monster Hunters International, the Grimoir Chronicles

“An intelligent and well thought-out high action time travel story.”
Noah Mullette-Gillman, Luminous and Ominous

“Dixon excels at putting down action, of introducing larger-than-life heroes, kicking them through the door into a big mess, and having them sort out a situation in a flurry of martial arts moves and big guns.”
Mel Odom, The Rover series.

Helldorado was previously published as part of One Helluva Bad Time

Action packed to the CORE!!!! A GREAT series!

Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2016

Bad Times is a superb action time travel series and Chuck Dixon just keeps the stories coming and the body count multiplying in Book 4! I've enjoyed every single one of these books so far but this story, where the Rangers roll back to where it all began in prehistoric times to rescue their comrade, is a *serious* page turner! I felt I was actually back there amongst the massive beasts of the day (altho there are some adorable little animals as well) including vicious beavers and sabretooths! But the most vicious species back there is humanoid and the Rangers pay them back with Justice and extreme firepower. The chemistry is fantastic amongst the Rangers, I really dig the recent additions such as Bat, an Israeli soldier and Bruce the Macedonian is awesome and an absolute legend. Chuck Dixon knows how to deliver a dramatic ending and this one is epic and extremely tense as the Rangers are pushed to the limit. Throw in shadowy moves in the present and some tense, exciting subplots and you have my favorite of Chuck's many awesome books! 5 stars!!! Can't wait to start book 5!

If you're in the tank for "Bad Times" books, then you'll want to own this one for sure. It sure seems denser than its forebears, in the best way possible. I highly recommend this series for armed service and war hardware buffs, for sure.

Another great entry in the series

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2015

While on a chronological rescue mission, the Rangers return to some familiar ground, while facing new & deadlier threats. The fourth installment of Bad Times is reminiscent of the first in terms of structure as well as content: the expected "main" story (heroes go back in time on a mission that goes thrillingly pear-shaped) takes up an overwhelming majority of the narrative, while the grander chronal maneuverings fade into the background a bit-- though there are some tantalizing seeds planted for future books and new enemies.

Again, that main action story doesn't disappoint, and is arguably the most intense, against-all-odds scenario Team Tauber has gone through yet. The dialogue remains fun & snappy, and while this series does place its emphasis on action, the relationships between the characters are deepened as well. Dixon again shows off his research skills as he has the heroes encounter terrifying prehistoric wildlife, as well as startling details like what detonated C4 smells like.

If you want modern military action with a cool sci-fi hook, you can't do any better.

"Helldorado" is the Best!

The three books leading up to this one have been terrific, but here it feels like Dixon is really hitting his stride with this science fiction / action-adventure series. This book takes us along on a rescue mission as a team of Rangers journey through time to rescue a friend they were forced to leave behind in a prehistoric world. The landscape is swimming with dangers, monsters, cannibals and savages, providing steady stream of action and terror. Through it all, the friendship of the characters shine through (and there’s lots of intrigue in the modern day as well, as a new threat appears). I couldn’t read this one fast enough! Action packed from beginning to end and loaded with heart and humor. Highly recommended!

Helldorado...a nice place to visit, but i wouldn't want to live there

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2016

Great storytelling continues! For a human that has never seen what life was like 100,000 years ago, Chuck Dixon sure has a knack for describing some very beautiful scenery. Vivid details of a prehistoric man that may or may not have existed make you wonder what life was like in the other 98% of human history. Picking up where book 3 left off (also a 5-star offering, I mean, they save Jesus after all) we find our Rangers travelling back to get a man they left 100,000 years behind and five years after he was presumed dead. Rick Renzi was living like a god for those 5 years, let me tell you. More twists and turns keep you interested in the story and keep the pages turning, along with a shadowy villain that doesn't quite strike you as one in the beginning. All in all, I want there to be more Bad Times ahead!

Another good page turner. The only downside is that we have been "here" before. Looking forward to what other twists the author can come up with.

Return to the past, again for more 'Bad Times!'

Fantastic fourth adventure in the 'Bad Times' series of books about a group of time traveling Army Rangers and their friends. This one may have been the best of the bunch. I could not put it down, and finished it almost entirely in one sitting. The only problem is I want more, right now! Chuck Dixon is a master storyteller and this series has quickly skyrocketed to my favorite series to read. I can't wait for another book. Between 'Bad Times' And 'The Levon Cade' series Chuck is tying up a lot of my reading time and it's all worthwhile. A fantastic read from cover to cover that leave more questions than answers by books end. meaning I have to come back for more and can't wait.

Great! Now Where Is The Next?

Reviewed in Australia on December 1, 2015

If you are new to this series go back to book one. If you have already read the first 3 in this series then you know what you are in for, a thrilling ride through history with prehistoric animals that aren't afraid of man, protomen who are mean as hell and enough nail biting action to keep you satisfied. Most of this story deals with a rescue mission in the past but in the now a new enemy has arisen to complicate things. Plenty of room for sequels. The characters are likeable and competent no whiney characters here.
