Summary
Book one in a new series from the creator of the best-selling Freehold Universe series.
A military unit is thrust back into Paleolithic times with only their guns and portable hardware. Ten soldiers on convoy in Afghanistan suddenly find themselves lost in time. Somehow they arrived in Earth's Paleolithic Asia. With no idea how they arrived or how to get back, the shock of the event is severe. They discover groups of the similarly displaced: imperial Romans, Neolithic Europeans, and a small cadre of East Indian peasants.
Despite their technological advantage, the soldiers only have 10 people and know no way home. Then two more time travelers arrive from a future far beyond the present. These time travelers may have the means to get back, but they aren't giving it up. In fact they may have a treacherous agenda of their own, one that may very well lead to the death of the displaced in a harsh and dangerous era.

weak
Any additional comments?
Weak survival story, very American, lost count of the hoo ahs which were irritating and unnecessary. All revolves around the American party, enough said! do i have to say more, no you get my drift...............ITS NOT WORTH BOTHERING WITH.

Past, Present and future
Took a while to get into the audio book and was irritated by the American whoya sounds, but it became interesting then seemed to run out of steam as they went to the future, an ok listen once only.

Clichéd and far too long
Oh dear, what can I say about this? It feels like it was written by an incel teen. The entire story is about getting access to sex, the characters are clichéd and have no depth. The initial idea was good but that is about it. Very disappointing overall and went on far too long.

interesting but largely uneventful
plenty of thought and research went into the book but don't expect a gripping yarn full of twists and turns. everything seems to go rather smoothly throughout. great attention to detail and i felt transported to a vibrant world. character development felt a little forced. a good study of group dynamics but a little on the utopic side, military fans, historians and time travel fans will love this one.

Solw to get into
This book overall was a great listen.
It did take a while to get into and the narrator took some getting used to.
I nearly gave up on it 5 chapters in but kept going with it.
It expanded out nicely and had some nice little adages
Overall the story was entertaining and kept me listening

fascinating sci-fi "procedural"
not an action story but really in depth storyline which made it a lot like an anthropological novel than a sci-fi adventure. I enjoyed the depth and breadth of the story, also the length was fine with me. The ending was very appropriate for the overall tone but didn't make me feel it was over.
