About this listen
The future is coming...for some more than others.
Ellis Rogers is an ordinary man who is about to embark on an extraordinary journey. All his life he has played it safe and done the right thing. But when he is faced with a terminal illness, Ellis is willing to take an insane gamble. He's built a time machine in his garage, and if it works, he'll face a world that challenges his understanding of what it means to be human, what it takes to love, and the cost of paradise. Ellis could find more than a cure for his disease; he might find what everyone has been searching for since time has begun - but only if he can survive the Hollow World.

Sped through like a dynamo
Excellent story and very enjoyable. I love it when a brilliant author gives you a possible taste of what the future could look like. I think this kind of imagination is very important. They just invented a hover bike like those seen in Star Wars. Change starts in the imagination.

Preachy and Heavy handed but worst of all boring
a man with the terminal illness finds a way to build a time machine in his garage that can only go forward in time. He ends up traveling 2,000 years in the future where they can cure the illness but society has changed dramatically.
I would consider myself a Michael j. Sullivan fan. I've listened to all the Riyria all the empire, all the rise and fall, a bunch of short stories, but this book did not click with me. The science is weak, but the author explains that up front. It's a plot device. don't scratch the surface too much, Think more Robert Heinlein . than Isaac Asimov.
While the narrator did a competent job, there was never any urgency in anything he read. none of the characters seem to matter, even the main characters. everything was sort of just flat. I'm used to Michael j. Sullivan's novels having characters that I care about. I didn't care about any of these characters, and I never got invested in any of the plot. There was no subtlety at all plot points got telegraphed from a million miles away. The message, while fine is presented in a preachy heavy-handed way. The lack of subtlety was disappointing.

If you are considering this title because you are a Michael Sullivan fan you will likely be dissapointed
I trudged through this book hoping the ending would make it worth the slog through terrible science and preachy Christian dogma.
No such luck.
