About this listen

In this action-packed sci-fi thriller from the bestselling author of the Sol Saga, a man is on a mission to stop his family’s killer no matter what—or when.

Andrew Frost had been gone no more than fifteen minutes. It was just supposed to be a quick run to the store. But in that brief interval, his entire universe was stolen from him, every parent and spouse’s worst nightmare on display at the kitchen table upon his return.

Two months later, he’d do anything to see Sylvia and Alison again. He’s certainly taken enough pills to make that possible. However, there may be another way . . .

With the help of a strangely anachronistic device and its snarky AI, Andrew suddenly has a chance at a new future. It’s simply a matter of changing the past. Soon, he’s chasing after a killer with a shifting face, who has his sights set on Andrew’s wife and daughter. He can’t—he won’t—let them die again. But when the mysterious Clockmen are dispatched with orders to keep the timeline on track at any cost, it could mean the last grain of sand in the hourglass for Andrew, bringing his own time to an end.

How far would you be willing to go—and what price would you pay—to save the ones you love? In this thrilling science-fiction adventure from Hunter Blain, bestselling author of the Preternatural Chronicles and Sol Saga, a grieving father will discover the inevitable cost of manipulating time in order to do the impossible.

Wow... just WOW!

If you're looking at the reviews because you're debating on whether or not you should buy this.. Let me save you the hassle... JUST DO IT!

This story will sink its claws into you right from the start, and buckle up buttercup, you're in for a wild ride! If you're familiar with Hunter's other series, the Preternatural Chronicles, I guarantee you will love this book.

Hunter, you absolutely brilliant human being, you continue to amaze me! I still don't understand how you can make someone laugh, cry, scream and even question their sanity with a certain fraction of chapter (if you know, you know). You are a genius, I literally had to pace myself not to finish this in one sitting, I NEED to know what happens next!

As we all know, a narrator can make or break an audiobook. Even the absolute best stories can be ruined by a narrator that just drones on and on and on. That is NOT the case here! Luke Daniels is a god amongst narrators, and as always, absolutely nailed it. Luke goes above and beyond to bring every single character to life and keep you actively engaged in this crazy world. You can feel the emotions in the story, you hear the happiness, the hurt, the silliness, and the undying love of a father and a husband willing to do whatever it takes for his family. I couldn't think of a better team than Hunter and Luke.

I hope you guys continue to grace our ear holes working together for many, many years to come!

A gut punch throughout in the best way.

This book was so great. Especially early on, it was like a gut punch listening. However, in saying that, it builds the story in a very cool and interesting way. The story had some unexpected twists and I can’t wait to read more from this world.
As always Luke Daniels is amazing on his reading of it.

If you’re a fan of “Rick & Morty”

Honestly I’m shocked that this isn’t technically a LIT RPG book. I’m new to this author & technothrillers yet I was hooked from the beginning.

John Quinones would be so proud!!!

Hunters done it again! What would you do if your entire world was flipped upside down and you had the chance to turn it around? Are the consequences worth the chances you’re taking? How about if you had a little help on the inside…would it make the decisions easier or harder? This might be the fastest I’ve ever gotten through an audiobook! My family got ignored for a day but it was totally worth it!!! This authors world building is getting better and better with every book he writes and you can really tell he worked hard at making this story as realistic and easily understandable even with all the futuristic mumbo jumbo! What a wonderful conundrum. Does love really conquer all? You should probably grab this book quick to find out for yourself!!!

That Was Some Ride

Having conversed with Hunter through Social Media (thank god for that capability), I knew I was in for something “different” but still damn well worth the time to read/listen to. Without giving away anything.. I was NOT ready for the suddenness that starts off the entire process premise of the story so soon. My hats off to Hunter B & Luke Daniels for their collective efforts to bringing about this book & sure future universe/series.
