A complete briefing and education on EDI Having so many people ask me for a rolled-up version of the EDI Education Series; I decided to put together all 4 books of the EDI Education Series into a single volume. This is an updated rendition of the 4 books in the EDI Education Series. By reading and understanding the information between these covers you will have an excellent basis to be an asset to any EDI Department. The previous 4 books, which this is based upon, hold very different aspects of the EDI world. As such, they offer an excellent refresher on their specific topic. But, this 5th volume builds upon the previous four to empower you to become a very able EDI Analyst with the knowledge and ability of someone entering into the wonderful world of EDI. In 2024, this book has been expanded and updated, and you can rest assured that the information that appears in this book WILL make you a valued member of any EDI team.

Book 2 of the Archive Series. Benjamin Jensen's best friend in all of time, Brad Jorgen, returns from a long-term research project with important news. Someone is traveling in time disrupting the time stream. Benjamin and Brad are tasked to repair and ensure it does not happen again. Afterward, the Archive Academy requests that the two of them teach a course in how to be inconspicuous when performing research, and how to improvise when things do not go as planned. The class is a hit, but there are a lot of bumps during the learning process. Including a covert trip to Pluto to reclaim a ship, they left on the once and former planet several thousands of years earlier, one they will need to use to revive a civilization that has been dead and forgotten to the passage of time for several millennia.
