Book two of the novels of the Company. Much more going on than in book one, which was in Elizabethan England and paced a bit slow. Left me looking forward to book three.

The second volume in 'The Company' series. This one involves a lot more satire.... the Company has told its agents to 'preserve' an intact village of a Native American tribe called the Chumash - people, artifacts and all. However the agents from the future are incompetent, wussy vegetarians who seem to spend all their time playing videogames and freaking out about germs (& etc). The immortal agents have to wonder what the 24th century is actually like, and what/who they are actually doing their work for...
Mendoza is in this book, but the main character is her mentor, Joseph, whom she still has a very strained relationship with. Physically augmented to resemble the Coyote god of Chumash legend, Joseph has to convince the villagers to be ready to pick up and leave their lives behind...
Quite an enjoyable book...
