Paradox Bound: A Novel

I'm new to this type of literature, and it was very enjoyable, I'll definetly read more of this author

Okay, so you're probably looking at this title because you've read 14 and The Fold. This book has a similar feel as those two in SOME ways. It talks heavily about time travel. Well, "history travel," as the book states several times...Usually, in response to a character calling it time travel.

Initially, I remember thinking "okay, yeah... those reviews were right. I wonder if I can get a refund on my credit?" I stuck it out longer because I've really enjoyed this author in the past, and He uses Ray porter frequently for narration and he is GREAT.

I felt the story moved a little slow at first. It was hours into narration before I even cared about what was going on. The story itself is very unique. sometimes I wonder where he comes up with these ideas. Once you finish the book, you'll see that there was a lot of thought put into it. There are also a few twist that are interesting.
On the downside, there are still things that I don't understand. Perhaps, it's just because this concept was way too intricate for my little mind to follow. (Like I said, a lot of thought was put into it)
It's not a book where I found myself being really invested in the characters, at least, not like I was in 14. I think maybe this book focuses more on the story, and the two leads are just used to further it.
But I will tell you my first impression was wrong. This IS a good book and worth a read. 14 is still my favorite. If you haven't read that yet, please start with it. Otherwise, I'm not sure you'll give this book a chance once you get into it.

Everything you've come to expect from Peter Clines and Ray Porter, with a nice (tiny little) tie in with his other Lovecraft based fiction. Very relatable characters, love the history references and bringing some American Icons into the mix. It would be challenging to tie in historical facts and these icons into to this fictional art work, but it all worked nicely. Easy to follow along unlike some other time oops, I mean "history" traveling stories. Ray Porter is always a brilliant narrator cannot praise him enough. It would be nice to see a sequel come into fruition, but there are no cliff hangers to make you frustrated :)

probably one of my new top 5. dont want to give anything away however. you will not regret it.

Peter Clines has further solidified himself as my favorite author with this book. Ray Porter needs a raise too! Dude is amazing in all his books.

Very well-done time conundrum tale. Lots of humor. Lots of clever names. Lots of time twists. Cool cars. A train! A happy ending. And Ray Porter.

If you like hurting your brain with time paradoxes, this is a good one.

Peter Clines is my favorite author, and this book cements his place in history as one of the greats. Porter delivers another great performance as always. snuck in unneeded bathroom breaks to finish this one!

I loved it. This book was solid. It’s a perfect time travel story. Porter is the best.

I can never get enough of Ray Porter reading Peter Clines! I do tend to feel like Peter Clines‘s stories drag in the middle, and this book might not be an exception, but I think he does that on purpose because everything wraps up so incredibly at the end. His stories are always gripping and clever. After reading 14 and The Fold, I picked up this title as soon as it was released and it was not a disappointment. Thank you gentlemen!

this book blew me away. kept going not quite where I'd expect it. forced some serious binge listening over the past few days
