Summary

Science fiction, mystery, a passionate love story, and a detailed history of old New York blend together in this spellbinding story of a young man embroiled in a secret government experiment. Transported from the mid-1900s to the New York of 1882, Si Morley solves a mystery of the 20th century by discovering its 19th-century roots, and falls desperately in love with a beautiful young woman in the process. He ultimately finds himself forced to choose between his lives in the present and the past. This is the classic novel that has captivated an entire generation since its original publication in 1970.

terrific

Short, smart, terrific read - makes your head spin - great stuff. Stephen King said this was the book that influenced him in his time travel book about the Kennedy assassination. Read that too!

A good story treated very badly.

The audio quality on this is pretty appalling (it sounds like a very dated radio recording) and the listening experience is made worse by frequent musical segments played behind the beginning and end of each chapter, but as these tend to run on for near 30 seconds each the narration is almost completely drowned out.

This abridged version feels very choppy and it is likely the result of heavy editing to get this to fit into a set time slot when originally broadcast.

It is bearable all things considered, and I did manage to finish the title, but it is unlikely to be something you revere or re-visit.

Very Good

A classic time travel story, which describes an experiment in which one can travel through time by self hypnosis. Very enjoyable and very well read. The sound quality is more like good FM Radio rather than CD, but I did not find it off-putting.

Totally captivating

A brilliantly written and superbly read story. By the end it was so believable. Everyone should read this and wonder afresh is time travel just a dream or has it actually happened already.
