Publisher's summary

Reality is sometimes not what it appears to be.

Dr. Albert Snowden just wanted to be there for his niece, Emily, after the loss of her father. Being abducted by aliens, and then rescued by a mysterious being known as Evaran, has made that difficult. Despite their situation, they try to make the best of it while traveling through space, time, and beyond with Evaran and V, Evaran's trusty mobile artificial intelligence. With the use of Evaran's time-traveling ship, the Torvatta, they will try to maintain timeline integrity while dealing with the challenges that brings.

This box set contains the first three books in the Evaran Chronicles. If you like science fiction, time travel, technology, and adventure with a space opera bent, then this series is for you.

Couldn't get into it

The narrator was very good, but I had a hard time getting into this book. I got through the first one thinking that maybe it would draw me in more...but it didn't. For a hard-core sci-fi reader, I think this would work better than for me.

Wish there were more

Very good performance. I truly enjoyed the story and was sad to have it end . One of those books that would make a great movie. A great space opera with good guys and interesting bad guys.

Spellbinding story

This is one of the best stories I have heard in a long time! I listened to the pre book and was hooked. you want to keep listening to see what happens next!
I am fascinated by time travel and alternate universes and this has hooked me on this story and I cannot wait for more to be on Audible.
Michael Pauley does a fantastic job handling all the different voices that I would think it is a crew of people doing it. The sound effect are great and I cannot say I have heard another audio book that was better! I will look for other books by him!

If you like Dr. Who, you'll like this

It took a bit to realize that these are basically Dr. Who stories, but not 'official'. If you like Dr. Who, these stories will fill that need. They have the same flow and feel of many of the Dr. Who episodes. The main character is a time traveler with some quirks.

Overall I enjoyed the stories. They were lighthearted and fun.
They did get a little long at times and parts were plodding. It seems to need a bit of editing to cut out some excess stuff and it would have improved this overall.

I requested this copy of the audiobook and have voluntarily left this review

Amazing Time Travel, flawed characters

PROS:
* Evaran, though bland, was an awesome character from beginning to end.
* I love the historical twists and intertwining time line conundrums.
* The tech was awesome
* The range of interstellar characters was intriguing and very satisfying.
* Emily does eventually get some screen time! .

CONS:
1. Dr. Snowden's running emotional internal monologs were nauseating. The time could have been better spent on describing the ships, or environment, or science behind whatever, or character outfits, or character powers, or... just not repetitive dribble about the same feelings.
2. Character personality flip flops were too choppy and inconsistent.
2.1. Emily was not given enough speaking time. its nonsense to assume that we knew she was bubbly. As a matter of fact, its a lie. Nowhere in the timelines did she appear bubbly.
2.2. The Dr. Snowden character was physically male but he mostly acted like a whining, scared, over-protective mommy when Emily was around. But he was confident and outwardly focused most of the other times.
2.3. The rare occasions that Emily spoke in books 1&2 barely gave us insight into her emotions or personality... just some queer stereotypes :(
2.4. Luckily those stereotypes were NOT carried forward to book 3.
2.5. Seems like Emily can't be introspective or even outwardly verbal when ppl are around. But by herself, she's amazing.

3. The monotone delivery of Evernote and Dr. Snowden often got confusing in Books 1&2. The only way I was able to keep track was that Dr. Snowden was always dribbling about some emotion.

4. Whats the obsession with Emily and releaving herself? She was the only one who ever had to pee! And why did you have to repeatedly describe it?

A mix of Dr Who, Aliens and the Matrix

** This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. **

For fans of Dr Who, aliens, time travel, and other sci fi classics the story is a nice blend of each. It may stream a bit heavy into the realm of time travel but it does end up serving as a necessary part of the story and worth making sure you pay attention to the details. We start off with Dr Snowden and his niece Emily being awoken from their own personal version of the Matrix after being rescued by a time traveling alien that had already been living among people of Earth for some time. They find themselves in the near future on an alien spacecraft that is failing and about to crash. This sets off a chain of events not only affecting the future of earth itself but the aliens that started this whole mess.

As the added bonus of getting all 3 books for a single credit in which to review them is a huge plus. I had a bit of an issue getting into the narrator at first mainly due to the speed of his speech. While I tend to listen to books a bit faster than normal speed to make it sound more fluid sometimes parts sounded a bit off, although he did have a fairly good range for different characters which did help.

And I would like to give a personal thanks to the Author for following up as well to ensure I was able to get a review copy of the audible versions.

Would have been better worth less

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

He sounded like he had no interest in narrating this book.

Any additional comments?

Good, but not great

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

TLDR; Dr. who with fewer hangups about killing people O.o

This a tough one, one the one hand I liked it, on the other, I don't like it enough to look at the rest of the series. It's not bad by any means, but I just didn't really care for it. Honestly, given that I listen to a lot of Sci-fi I'm not really sure where this one lost my interest, but it did.

Overall, not bad, not great, and serviceable enough, but I don't think I'll look at the rest of there series.

Amazing!!!

Never before it was so easy for me to give 5 stars!
Truly I got nothing bad to say here, even the performance was better then perfect.
This series is awesome, Doctor Who is a pussycat compered to Evaran he is the doctor on steroids and much much more.
This series is pure fun, as always when time travel is involved it can be mind boggling but with those books you can put it all aside and just enjoy and you will I guarantee it, after all that's the reason we read or listen to books we want some time out and enjoy.
This series will do it, I recommend it with all my heart.
