Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It began as a calculated, but desperate, attempt to survive in a cruel world and time. The Second Attempt is a last-gasp effort to avoid execution. Rob Winslow and two robots arrive from the future, back to the year 1844. Their time-lab is additionally staffed with a super-intelligence unit called U-326. Rob is in this era to avoid a death sentence from the Cruel Committee. If he performs as a Transmitter of live action, and is accepted by the people of the earth-year 3753, his sentence will be withdrawn. In a twist of fate, the people grow to love Winslow as he succeeds in his mission. In gaining popularity with the people, though, he becomes a threat to the powerful Committee. Can Rob evade the Regulators, whom he correctly expects the Committee to send? Can he elude the terminator that is sent with the sole purpose of ending Winslow's life? Once again, Bob G. Stidham weaves a story that draws you in. It is a splendid mix of science fiction and old-time western. You can almost smell the dust, taste the coffee and hear the creak of the leather saddle.
