The Timecaster series, written under Konrath’s Joe Kimball pen name, is set in a near-future world where time travel technology is used by law enforcement to witness crimes after they happen. The first book, Timecaster, was published in 2011 by Ace Books, making it one of Konrath’s few traditionally published works from that era.

The trilogy continued with Timecaster Supersymmetry in 2012 and Timecaster Steampunk in 2023, the latter marking a return to the series after more than a decade. The books mix hard science fiction concepts with the fast-paced action and dark humor that Konrath brings to all his work.
