How did Albert Einstein come up with his wondrous theories of light and time?
In Einstein's Compass: A YA Time Traveler Adventure, a young Albert is gifted a supernatural compass that allows him to travel through time and space. He finds wisdom in other dimensions, like the lost city of Atlantis, but evil forces seek the power of the compass, including a monstrous, shape-shifting dragon from a different age.
Can the compass protect Albert from such villainy?
What the critics say:
"Albert Einstein has appeared in Doctor Who a couple of times during the show's long history, most recently in the mini episode "Death Is the Only Answer", but what has been sadly lacking is a full-on, Einstein-centric, time travel adventure. While we wait for that day to come, our attention was drawn to Einstein's Compass, a young adult time travel adventure from the joint pens of Grace Blair and Laren Bright.
Focusing on a young Einstein, the story sees our famed mathematician given a special compass from his father - a compass which opens the doorway to an adventure that spans millennia. From mythical Atlantis to ancient Egypt, through biblical times to mystical beasts, it's a nonstop whirlwind of time travel fantasy, with a good old dash of good versus evil that will have you gripped throughout.
Einstein's Compass has a real vibrancy, thanks in part to the way in which the many locations are brought to life in broad technicolor strokes, juxtaposed with the authors' rounded characters - some of which you will know and get a kick out of their interactions.
Whilst the content is almost wholly a work of fiction, there are factual elements peppered within that add a wonderful balance, keeping the reader's mind open to the possibilities - something that Einstein was renowned for and also something that this book ultimately pays tribute to.
This is a book that is written by two authors, but yet it reads absolutely and unequivocally as one. You sense no conflict in tone or direction, nor do you feel like the narrative is pulling in any jarring direction. Clearly, this is a work of genuine passion from Blair and Bright, and it shines in every drip of ink on the page." (Sebastian J. Brook, actor and writer)

Mr. Bonnem did a great job as narrator as well, especially with the accents. All of the base narration was in English, but the dialog was all done with appropriate accents as well as tonal differences for the characters. It was great!
I really hope that Ms. Blair and Ms. Bright continue this concept and create more books with this theory. It was wonderful to see everything play out in the realm and the concept of those folks (not named for spoiler sake) sitting together was quite amusing.
I was provided with a free copy of this audio book for my honest review. The views expressed here are entirely my own.

I found this story to be entertaining, enlightening, and a must read for those who believe that time travel has possibilities. It is a well-crafted novel with complexities and depth that many will find a fascinating read. I highly recommend this to any adult young or older. A fascinating perspective you won’t want to put down. I hope there is another book along the same lines in my future.
Time travel at its best!

a very good Adventure

This was an interesting listen. First, I think the narrator did a good job. His accent made it very interesting and fitting for a story about Albert Einstein. I think the premise is clever and thought they executed it well. My 11 year old son and I listened to this one together and we both enjoyed it. He more than me, but the salient point being we both got something out of it. I will warn you, though, it has to build up a bit before the story really takes off. Thankfully, it is just the first couple of chapters that are a little slow. After that, though, I felt the pacing was good. All in all, I would recommend this one.
My son and I both liked this one

Both Grace Blair and Laren Bright took a historical character and intricately blended this adventuresome fantasy. I loved it completely. The different time periods depicted in this story were based on historical fact, mythology, and common belief which made the story richer. I loved the vivid imagery the authors created. The character development was smooth and complete. The plot twists were brilliantly executed.
The narrator, Curt Bonnem was an excellent choice for the book. His German accent, cadence, and tonal inflections were spot on. His masterful voice kept the listener intrigued and the story moving forward. He projected the right amount of emotion – confidence, curiosity, snark, and more that aided in the development of the characters.
Well done book and I look forward to more written by Blair and Bright!
The audio production of this book was well done and clear.
