Second Salvo of Brooks & Smith?!

Who would have thought that Brooks & Smith, Book 1 would be followed by Brooks & Smith, Book 2. Not I! Not the unexpecting public, who have barely recovered from the previous harrowing adventure of Brooks & Smith. Time Purge takes the pre-shook Boggle letters from the first book (which therein spelled out Apocalypse, Time Travel, and Undead Monsters) and adds Super Powers, Virtual Reality, and Other Things that really wouldn't fit in any Boggle cube I've ever seen. But it doesn't matter. Nothing does! Because if Brooks & Smith don't stop it, the world is going to end again. Or still, depending on how you look at it. Or listen to it. And you should. Because it's good. Those other books you were thinking of getting instead? Those suck.

This audiobook is read by James Urbaniak. He does an Elmo voice. It's worth reading for that alone.

Time Binge! More Like Aural Binge

Time Binge is a silky smooth six hour rollercoaster ride that never got tiring. Whenever I thought Fetzer was about to lose control of the plot, she'd finesse it back into shape with a well-placed recap. Whenever the ooey gooey center of the story (the romantic relationship between Brooks & Smith) threatened to overtake the sf of it all, Smith would say something guileless and crude. It's a violent, hilarious romp through time, with Men In Black, puritans, wraiths, and a load of other stuff. Lists are boring. This book is not. Read Time Binge.

Oh! And lest we forget, this book is read to you with the comic timing, voice artistry, and care of one James Urbaniak. Not to be missed. Ribbed for your aural pleasure. Enjoy it.
