À propos de cet audio
When Micajah Fenton discovers a crater in his front yard with a broken time glider in the bottom and a naked, virtual woman on his lawn, he delays his plans to kill himself. While helping repair the marooned time traveler's glider, Cager realizes it can return him to his past to correct a mistake that had haunted him his entire life. As payment for his help, the virtual creature living in the circuitry of the marooned glider, sends Cager back in time as his 10-year-old self, knowing everything he'd known at 80 and gives him access to advanced equations of space and time.
But living life over knowing the future isn't as easy as Cager has anticipated. His every action alters the future he remembers until much of what he remembers never happened at all. And those changes work against him at every turn, preventing him correcting the most serious mistake of his life. Now he must use his advanced mathematical ability to build his own time machine to go back and try again. But he needs a fortune even to begin.
Then he receives help from a strange young woman with no history. While perfecting time travel, Cager and his new partner overcome enormous problems, even being hunted by dinosaurs in the Cretaceous. After that, though, things get really bizarre.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 14
It is 2059, and the world has crashed. Forty years ago, a solar catastrophe began to slow the planet's rotation to a stop. Now, one half of the globe is permanently sunlit, the other half trapped in an endless night. Ellen Hopper is a scientist living on a frostbitten rig in the cold Atlantic. She wants nothing more to do with her country after its slide into casual violence and brutal authoritarianism. Yet when two government officials arrive demanding she return to London to see her dying college mentor, she accepts—and begins to unravel a secret.

Detective P.T. Marsh was a rising star on the police force of Mason Falls, Georgia - until his wife and young son died in an accident. Since that night, he's lost the ability to see the line between smart moves and disastrous decisions. Such as when he agrees to help out a woman by confronting her abusive boyfriend. When the next morning he gets called to the scene of his newest murder case, he is stunned to arrive at the house of the very man he beat up the night before. He could swear the guy was alive when he left, but can he be sure?

Histoire3.5 out of 5 stars 3
Throughout history, two perspectives on the world have dueled in our minds: the extrinsic—that of mechanism and physics—and the intrinsic—that of feelings, thoughts, and ideas. The intrinsic perspective allows us to tell stories about our lives, to chart our anger and our lust, to understand our psychologies. The extrinsic allows us to chart the physical world, to build upon it, and to travel across it. These perspectives have never been reconciled; they almost seem to exist on different planes of thought.

Great
This book was fantastic. It had well written characters, a compelling plot and some very thought provoking concepts. This is sci-fi at its best.
I will say that the book's summary is quite misleading. This book is not a light-hearted tale. There are several dark moments throughout that cover on some extremely messed up topics.
Regardless, this book was an amazing read and was well worth the credit!

Really 3 stories
The first story is about an alien landing on Micajah Fenton's front lawn. The alien is both a time traveler and a space traveler. The alien needs his help to repair its ship.
The second is sort of a time travel story with an aim to change the past.
The third is more of an alien adventure story.
Overall I like most of this book. The characters were engaging and the narrator gave an excellent performance. The ending is too saccharine for me though and unfortunately will leave me with the feeling of this being a less good story than I had before the final chapters.

Interesting concept, didn't love the ending
Very interesting concept and found the majority of the book entertaining. Likable main character and you really cared what happened and how things turned out. However, I found the ending to be a bit of a cop out - felt silly in a way. Still, an interesting story of time travel. #Audible1

Everything about this book was amazing
I'm not usually a sci-fi fan but this book was amazing. I found it somewhat difficult to understand the science but that didn't detract from the story at all. The characters were loveable and relatable. The pacing was perfect. The narrator was phenomenal! He really brought the characters to life, even the women characters which I find can be difficult for some male narrators. Just a wonderful book and I'm looking forward to reading/listening to more of Jerry Merritt's books.

Fantastic
what a wonderful story. Fantastic characters, well written, great narrative, and intriguing story. I loved the physics aspect and how it really felt just out of reach from reality. It really makes you question, what would you do the second time through with a entire life if knowledge?

Not what I expected
I don’t know what I expected,but it turned out to be for the best. I was pleasantly surprised. I really got emotionally attached to these characters. Such good storytelling and voice acting. I hope they work together on more projects.
