Conquest Over Time by Michael Shaara audiobook. Genre: scifi Pat Travis has made a career out of being first. As a veteran Contact Man for a powerful Earth company, he races rival operators to newly opened worlds, gambling on speed, nerve, and a reputation for impossible luck. But when Travis reaches the planet the locals call Mert, his winning streak turns instantly sour: according to the planet's rigid astrological code, he has arrived on the worst possible day. Doors close, streets empty, officials turn hostile, and every attempt at diplomacy collides with a culture that believes the stars have already decided the outcome.Stranded in a city that looks like it was built for carriages and candlelight, Travis is pushed off the polite surface and into the dangerous underworld below, where outcasts survive in tunnels and sewers the respectable citizens pretend do not exist. There he meets two unlikely allies, including a startlingly brilliant young schemer who sees angles Travis has missed. Together they try to outthink superstition, corporate pressure, and a ticking calendar of unlucky hours, while Travis fights to prove that success is more than fate. Conquest Over Time blends tense negotiation, sly humor, and a sharp clash of belief systems into a fast, classic tale of science-fiction intrigue.
