In the near future, a civil servant is offered the salary of her dreams and is, shortly afterward, told what project she’ll be working on. A recently established government ministry is gathering “expats” from across history to establish whether time travel is feasible—for the body, but also for the fabric of space-time.

Long drawn out

Started out interesting then just dragged on and tried to become a love story and ceded with a twist. Muscled through it but should have gave up.

Good storyline

Good storyline, well acted out! Ended pretty quickly. Left me thinking we’re is part 2? There could be more to this story.

Not sure how to start
Reviewed: 08-18-18
I struggled through the first 3 chapters, almost gave up, couldn’t understand where the heck this was going. The fast talking was irritating, could of got the same point across without that. If you push through it gets better and you start understanding what is going on. Glad I stuck it out good story line a little irritating at some points but I think this could make a good move or mini series.

For years, writers and filmmakers have speculated about the possibility of the Earth being invaded by aliens from another planet. But what if the aliens have been watching us, infiltrating us via human collaborators or even surgically altering themselves to look human?

Really tried hard to like it.

I kept listening to the end and it just never got any better. Being aliens didnt have a lot to do with some of the stories, could of been any race. Disappointing read.
I had to read it at 1.5 speed just to get through it.
