NEVER VOLUNTEER FOR ACTIVE DUTY. . .

Bob Howard is a low-level techie working for a super-secret government agency. While his colleagues are out saving the world, Bob's under a desk restoring lost data. None of them receive any thanks for the jobs they do, but at least a techie doesn't risk getting shot or eaten in the line of duty. His world was dull and safe; but then he went and got Noticed.

Now, Bob Howard is up to his neck in spycraft, alternative universes, dimension-hopping terrorists, ancient Lovecraftian horrors and the end of the world. Only one thing is certain: it will take more than control+alt+delete to sort this mess out. . .
