Les Lynam (1954- ) was born in Creston, Iowa, into a farming family which also included an older brother and two older sisters. The family farm was near the tiny community of Corning, Iowa, (birthplace of Johnny Carson). After graduating from Corning High School, he attended Central Missouri State University (renamed University of Central Missouri in 2006), graduating in 1976 with a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communications. After a short, mostly unsuccessful, attempt at running a print shop, he refocused and returned to a life of studies at the University of Missouri. He received an M.A./M.L.S in 1986 and began a new career as a librarian at Ward Edwards / James C. Kirkpatrick Libraries at UCM. He took an early retirement on December 31, 2012 to pursue his lifelong dream of writing Science Fiction. His premier novels, ...Before You Leap and ...Saves Nine" were first published in 2014 with hopes and dreams of many more to come. His first series, Time Will Tell, is complete with five novels and he has started a second time-travel series, Some Other Time. His favorite sub-genre of Science Fiction is Time-Travel, with Martian Colonies a close second. He has one son and three grandchildren.

Two teens in a time machine... what could possibly go wrong?
Sean knows there's something different about the new girl in school -- Alexis Townsend -- but before he can figure out what, his world is turned upside down by the arrival of a distant relative. Distant, as in, his great-great-great-great-great-grandson.
Change, they say, is inevitable but if you're a time-traveler, change can be catastrophic.
Sean Kelly is thrilled when his multiple-great grandson gives him the opportunity to hang out with his own teenage dad and his far out friends in 1969. (Although the sleepy town of Mercer, Iowa is a far cry from Haight-Ashbury.)
After her relocation from 1969, Jane joins LX and Sean in an attempt to kidnap a clone from the Schattenwelt space station in the year 2169. Sean is shocked to find that he has already been there twice, but even more surprised by the team leader.
