The Sixth novel in the "Tropical Frontier" series, Time Rummers is, in addition, the Third novel in the "Port Starboard" sub-series. Whatever will be will be. But what happens when dreams become reality, when unbridled imaginations supplant the laws of nature? For Gnarles and Paddy it can be very confusing, but for a certain resident of Port Starboard it can mean the difference between life and death. Can the diminutive drunks find a way to save the day, to upend reality and turn the tables on Father Time? Maybe, but not without a little help from the patron saint of shipwrecked sailors himself.
