About this listen

 A country ripped apart with a secret that’s about to change the universe.

For Corps of Discovery Explorer Bill Clark, exploring parallel worlds in the multiverse is all in a day’s work, so entering the Confederate States of America was easy. Leaving is a different matter. Being hunted by some of the most dangerous people on this alternate timeline, the small team of Explorers must use their wits, skills, and experiences to outsmart their deadly foes and get home. Even if that means leaving the secret of a new technology behind, one that will shift the balance of power. But Bill isn’t about to do that. The stakes are too high.

The Explorers have been in dangerous situations before, but this one is different. This time, getting out alive may well prove impossible.

VDVMagazine Geodesy and Geoinformatics (German Academic Journal) Review: "Both books are highly recommended to read. In a technical world, they are reminiscent of the works of Karl May. The books are captivating and exciting in their richly detailed and addictive nature." Adventure Alternate History Science Fiction Fiction Explorer

I like the idea... Not so much execution. Needs editing - I guess people don't bother anymore, At least proof-reading then? Still no? Darn. Could have helped to clear quite a few little silly things such as knots, for instance. Don't they teach geographers that a knot (a nautical mile an hour) is a measure of a vessel's (or plane's) speed, not distance at sea? There are no "knots an hour". That'd be acceleration... No-one measures distance at sea in knots...

Virtual voice was actually pretty amazing. Granted, not perfect, but still :o) I guess the actual text must be adapted for a computer to read it properly. Eg. it would have been better to write "1200 hours" simply as "twelve hundred hours" so that the computer knew not to read it as "one thousand two hundred..." Or put dots to separate P. and I. to make it actually sound like a PI the private investigator rather than Pi the number...

I wonder if in probably not so distant future the virtual voice would do accents, age, sex etc different voices.

Could have been much better

I enjoyed the first two books in the series this one was not at all like the others. This is one large cliche with little interesting to make it tolerable. The story is predicable,and no interesting details to keep you wanting to continue.

one big cliche don't waste your time.

…Other than to use a lot of racist commentary. The more I tried to listen to the book the more irritating it became. This author should be banned in my opinion.

Extremely irritating, I don’t understand what the author is trying to get across…
