3 books together 62hrs - avoid this format

The first book was good, the second dragged and I lost interest. I think this is a problem with a format of a very long audio book compilation, in this case 62hours! where you can't separate the books. I am unable to find the start of book 3 so am giving up having got bogged down in two, despite having listened to 36hours! A big time investment.

An easy-listening time travel universe.

it's great to find a book which doesn't break it's own time travel rules. I've always found issue with stories that break their own established rules, yet this was a world created with specific rules complex enough to be interesting but intuitive enough that it was easy enough to follow.

I would highly recommend dipping your toes into the Chronoverse!

Loads of potential but that was all

The concept was good, but it was too complex when it didn't need to be.
I listened to the full set all at once, (well, one after the other), and that might be the reason why I have that opinion. But, I felt like I would really get to know the characters. But I ended up telling the characters not to do that cos it will end in tears...and mostly, it did.
Also, I've binged on time travel for the last 6 mothers or so and my reviews are also comparing one author against another...not healthy. I think if I'd have spaced the compilation out, my reviews may have been kinder. There is some maths to do on this and that might enable me to assess my progression earlier on so I could consider if a book, or series of books, should be considered as 'worth it' or 'I think I'll put the cat out'.
I had an issue with the narrator also, and that was his inflections when reading. The spoken word needs to be acted and not just read. I almost threw in the towel on a couple of occasions.

Absolutely love this series

I first read this series on Kindle a few years ago and it's the first one I've downloaded now I'm on Audible. Very quickly got used to the narrator and thought he did a great job of it. Dr Quickly's multiverse draws you in, and Nathan van Coops' imagination in creating the settings and weaving the story holds no bounds. Thanks again, Nate, for this masterpiece you've created, I absolutely love it

A time travel story mental workout

At 63 hours this is not a box set for anyone with a poor attention span. You really have to concentrate at times, as your mind is taken on conceptual workout.
I really enjoyed the authors concept of time travel, with all of it's inheritant problems. and even though at times I was forced to relisten to passages it retained my interest throughout. I thought thought that the narrative was excellent I look forward to listening to more from this author and narrator.

What a wild ride

I've been listening to other time travel books and came across this epic deal, 1 credit for 4 books!
Excellent, exciting story, the narrator took a minute to get into it but still all round a great series.

Make time for a great listen.

Probably the best time travel tail I have heard yet.
Really enjoyed it.
As a member of audible I even got this fantastic Mega box set as a free listen via the included titles.
Absolutely fantastic stuff.
Will definitely be checking out the next in the series.

No time like the present!

This has been one of the richest and most amazing time travel series I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. The characters are engaging and the scenarios complex enough that you have to pay attention to every detail. Cannot recommend this box set highly enough. Well written and well narrated.
