Summary

Nothing ever changes in Sanders. The town's still got a video store, for God's sake.

So why doesn't Eli Teague want to leave?

Not that he'd ever admit it, but maybe he's been waiting - waiting for the traveler to come back. The one who's roared into his life twice before, pausing just long enough to drop tantalizing clues before disappearing in a cloud of gunfire and a squeal of tires. The one who's a walking anachronism, with her tricorne hat, flintlock rifle, and steampunked Model A Ford.

The one who's being pursued by...something.

So when the mysterious traveler finally reappears, Eli's determined that this time, he's going to get some answers. But his hunt soon yields far more than he bargained for, plunging him headlong into a dizzying world full of competing factions and figures straight out of legend.

To make sense of the mystery at its heart, he must embark on a breakneck chase across the country and through two centuries of history - with nothing less than America's past, present, and future at stake.

Peter Clines and Ray Porter

Loved every second. Different tone and setting from the other books, but just as enjoyable, even though my favourite now. Zeik is a bad guy in two books so far, author really doesn’t like that name I’m guessing.

Thank you Peter. it's BRILLIANT

I'm in ore! genuinely moved. 5 star. I didn't think you would top "14" but you did. please write a sequel, there is room for another adventure... and without giving too much away (a little romance) they both deserve it!!!!

An enjoyable tale

A very enjoyable story. Hard to say much about the plot without spoilers so I won’t. Kept me listening across the few days it took for me to finish it and I’d have been happy to listen on after the end.
Narrator was perfect for the story.

Great book.

I don't often leave reviews so when I do it's because I liked it. A very clever book with likable characters.

Excellent as anticipated

Peter Clines remains one of my favourite authors. This is an excellent journey through history. This comment will make much more sense on reading the book.

Paradox Enjoyed

I like Peter Clines writting style. He always seems to deliver a straightforward book, well written with an intriquing idea that comes to a satisfactory conclusion. This book is no exception.

Decidedly different, but entertaining nonetheless!

I'm not a fan of Clines' zombie series but did enjoy The Fold, so this departure was more in 'my line' literature. Some have called it steampunk, and yes there are elements of it, but it is more the odd backdrop than a prominent feature, within a History travelling based storyline. Yes the book is a little far fetched at times, but to be honest, I never let it both me. What you have here is a reasonably well written, enjoyable novel, with some quirks, that is delivered very well by the very reliable Ray Porter. It will never win a prize for literature, but, you are in the wrong place if you are looking for that sort of thing. I enjoyed it and felt it was well worth a credit.

A fantastic story with great characters and a solid story. Has definitely left me wanting more and would eagerly read some sequels!

Loved it

It moves well, all parts move the story forward and are relevant. And there the satisfying, dramatic climax and an ending tying things up nicely. All round well worth it. Thank you.
