Publisher's summary
What if a time traveler lived in a world where disrupting the timeline could destroy everything in the universe? Everything but himself?
Pilot X is Ambassador of the Alendans, a race with the ability to move through space and time as guardians of the timeline. Locked in ongoing conflict with the Sensaurians, an organic hive mind that can send messages in thought throughout its own history, and the Progons, a machine race who can communicate backwards in time, Pilot X finally manages to create peace among the three races. But when Pilot X discovers that a secret dimensional war fought in hidden parts of spacetime threatens the fabric of the universe itself, he faces unseen enemies and a deeper conspiracy, bringing him to the ultimate choice: erase the existence of all three races, including his own people, or to let the universe be destroyed.

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.

Story
Boss loves to dive historical ships, derelict spacecraft found adrift in the blackness between the stars. Sometimes she salvages for money, but mostly she's an active historian. She wants to know about the past--to experience it firsthand. Once she's dived the ship, she'll either leave it for others to find or file a claim so that she can bring tourists to dive it as well. It's a good life for a tough loner, with more interest in artifacts than people.

The first book in C.J.Cherryh's eponymous series, Foreigner begins an epic tale of the survivors of a lost spacecraft who crash-land on a planet inhabited by a hostile, sentient alien race. From its beginnings as a human-alien story of first contact, the Foreigner series has become a true science fiction odyssey, following a civilization from the age of steam through early space flight to confrontations with other alien species in distant sectors of space. It is the masterwork of a truly remarkable author.

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

Believing that they had won, the citizens of the galaxy rebuilt. The Inner Worlds, which had escaped the worst of the war's ravages, became even more insular, while the Rim worlds adopted a free and easy way with law and order. Now, hundreds of years after their withdrawal, the Enemy is back - and this time they'll be satisfied with nothing less than the extinction of the galaxy.

In this prequel to Eon, Greg Bear continues to explore the possibilities presented by the asteroid Thistledown, a remnant of a lost human civilization. The Way is a tunnel through space and time that leads to other worlds, some more like planet Earth than Earth itself. It is perhaps the most formidable discovery in Thistledown and with it come disputes as to the nature of the Way and how it should be used. The Way can be reached only through Axis City, the only space station of Thistledown.

This book needs your attention
This story can be confusing and hard to follow. The main character travels back and fort trough time, and so does other characters. But the author has a plot and if you give the book your full attention you may figure it out along with our main character. The story has some funny moments, but it isn't really a funny book. It did not seem very exciting in the start, but eventually I had to keep listening all the way to the end. Which is funny If you remember how the book started.
I thought the narrator was a woman. Pilot x sounded female, but I think it was supposed to be a man. I think mister Merritt could have done a better job him self based on his many podcasts, but the narrator is not bad.

Another great work from a great person
Tom Merritt is one of the greats. A level headed tech reporter with a knack for great sci-fi.
His writing, while twisty in plot and character development, is hard core sci-fi at it's heart.
Good world building is what he's great at, and the naming scheme for some of the characters, while sometimes difficult to work out, make the world seem ancient.

In the style of a timeless story
This is a creative narrative told in the style of the sci-fi from the early and mid-20th-century. I often felt like I was Experiencing a Clifford Simak story. And the narrator does a great job of bringing that to life. This was a good one.

Cheeky Sci-fi, not a lot to invest in
This one wasn’t for me. I always get excited about time-travel books, it this cheeky tone and lack of emotional connections just doesn’t work for me. I see how it’s be right up your alley if you love Hitchhiker’s Guide or other things like that. I like a bit more to invest in. I already own the sequel. Might give a shot one day. But it took me weeks to get through this one because I just couldn’t latch on.

Amazing book
I really enjoyed this story, the storyline was great and the narration was on point even changing voices for different characters. I wish this would come out as a movie as the story is perfect for one. I am pretty picky with my books but this one was written perfect and hit my imagination the way I like it. I fully recommend this to anyone who enjoys syfy books. Thank you Tom Merritt, hope there is a sequel, I would definitely buy that one too.

Glad I finished, was satisfying.
Best part was the tidy ending. Almost didn't reach it as I found the earliest parts a bit monotonous. Glad I resumed it!

Interesting and intriguing story
I wasn't sure that I would like this book after listening to the first chapter but after listening longer I was hooked and looked forward to the next chance to listen.

Great book.
Great book! Worth every penny. Time travel done right that keeps you wondering what's next. Time for a sequel. <>
