About this listen

A new time-travel thriller from Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Amazon and Audible best-selling author R. R. Haywood. Creator of the smash-hit time-travel series Extracted and the UK’s number one horror series The Undead.

A man falls from the sky. He has no memory. He has no sense of self. What lies ahead are a series of tests, each more brutal than the last, and if he gets through them all, he might just reach a town called Discovery.

I really enjoyed this story and Carl's narration is superb. This is kind of what I had hoped a spin-off of the Extracted series would be like, so I'm hooked!

Great story, brilliant narration!

What a fantastic journey! Excellent details in the fighting scenes and then heart wrenching details in the death scenes. Fantastic British humour! Superbly read, all the accents, quite brilliant.

Brilliant!

First of all I did read some of the negative comments and I get them.
I did like the Extracted series, ending aside, but it has been some time since I finished it.
I think this has enough original ideas to be worth reading it and it did make me laugh hard at moments.
It did come out 2 years after the 3'rd Extracted so maybe it is a continuation?
Anyway, I like it.
And it it the first in a new series so need to see what comes next.

Good book but wait between it and Extracted

Really enjoyed this one, cracking pace, great idea and despite the author having done other time travel stories, this stands apart. As someone else said, stick with it (you'll find out..) as it's definitely worth it.

Cracking Pace

I loved Haywoods Extracted trilogy and looked forward to listening to this. Boy, I was not disappointed. It was outstanding. Right from the start you’re pulled in and it doesn’t let you go. If you like time travel books with a difference and with some violence then this is for you. The characters are so well drawn you become absolutely invested in them. There were even some laugh out loud moments. I am now desperate for the next book and yes, the way it ends leaves you in no doubt there is another book. But don’t worry, it’s not a crazy cliffhanger, just a comment that says it’s coming back, there will be more. And I for one can not wait.

Oh and I haven’t even mentioned the narrator yet. Just fantastic. Brought the book to life perfectly. I couldn’t imagine anyone else narrating.

Listen to this book!

Just outstanding

Absolutely loved every word written by Haywood and spoken by Carl.

Great story, and a refreshing escape from all the current madness in the world today.

I had managed to get a great bond with both the main characters (bear and rochi) and enjoyed following their story and that of their friends, colleagues and enemies alike.

As always with R R Haywood (although not his zombie books unfortunately) I found myself split between not being able to put this book down, but also not wanting it to end!!

Carl prekopp is by far my favorite narrator and apart from Luke Smithard reading his own books, I will always enjoy his tones and excellent form with the different accents and characters he deals with.

Well done to you both and thanks for time that both the author and narrator put in to make this book so enjoyable....... 👍😁

Now to find something equally as good...... Which may be a difficult task!!

Ak

Exceptional!!!

R.R. Haywood knocks it out of the park again with A town called Discovery.

I deliberated for a while around purchasing this and I'm so glad I eventually did. The story was so intriguing from the very beginning and immediately left me thinking "Where on earth is this going?". I'm not going to go into details around the story itself but the pace, the content, characters and progression were spot on. As usual, Carl Prekopp narrated fabulously and gave the characters and content the justice deserved.

I just want more please....the teaser at the end suggests a sequel but to be honest, this could run as a series and also attract fan writers.

Superb!

If you liked Extracted - don't hesitate

More greatness from RR Haywood. Also more time travel but very different from the Extracted series (if you’ve not read/listened to them yet add them to your to do list)

Loved the premise, story and characters, RR Haywood has his own unique style that shines through in this story and can’t recommend high enough

Fantastic Book
