Summary

Thanks to the time travel lab at St. Sunniva University, history is no longer a mystery. But when the beloved co-inventor of the university’s time machine is inexplicably smeared across time, academic exploration and the future of St. Sunniva is thrown into doubt.

As assistant to the dean of science, Julia Olsen is tasked with helping Campus Security Chief Nate Kirkland quietly examine this rare mishap…then, just as quietly, make it go away. But when the investigation indicates that the professor’s disappearance may have been a murder, those inspecting the incident unwittingly find themselves caught in a deadly coverup - one in which history itself is the weapon.

From the snow-blanketed walkways of St. Sunniva’s campus to the sun-bleached cobblestone of ancient Pompeii’s roads, The Far Time Incident is a lively romp through history, science, and the academic world in the wake of a crime.

it is several chapters too long

Shorten it

Would you ever listen to anything by Neve Maslakovic again?

No

What aspect of Mary Robinette Kowal’s performance might you have changed?

Nothing it was the book i had issue with.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Far Time Incident?

An awful lot of the "oh where are we?" come on they are intelligent and it is obvious after several pages.

Not sure what the story is.

This was a free book on kindle unlimited and not sure now why i chose it! I must confess i stopped listening about half way through but the story didn't grip me and didn't seem to be going anywhere. It may have got much better but i'll leave that to others to find out, performance was good though i know a good performance can't improve a stagnant story.

Sometimes you get what you pay for - this was free

Poor review but I just couldn't get into this.
Right from the start I could tell and the posh lisping voice for the intern was beyond annoying.

Didnt get very far so judge it on that if anything - not the content I missed.
