Have loved it, Will love it, that's enjoyable time travel.

Engaging box set of standalone, gripping, fast paced fun time-traveling rides of mystery

Time of Death is an engaging, gripping, fast paced fun time-traveling ride of mystery with protagonist Greyson Travers, son of Ben and Mym Travers.

The Time Travel Detective Mystery boxset includes 3 standalones:
    1. Time of Death
    2. Agent of TIme
    3. Clockwise & Gone

I grew up enthralled with edgy adventures from many writers like Robert Heinlein and Larry Niven. So with the "In Times Like These" series, I have loved the thrilling ride along with a well developed family of characters, being captivated by fun page turners while they discover time travel, accidentally fallen through it, and learning how and who, (and who not,) to get help from.

In full disclosure, I had joined the Facebook fan group. After buying "Time of Death" ebook and acquiring the same in audiobook boxset, but before enjoying them, I messaged the author, Nathan Van Coops, about the use of an audiobook, giving a sense of listening to old radio plays or black and white film noir as I, with my grandmother, born in the 1890s, had.

He coyly replied to me, well, that's time travel, which I better understood why, when in early chapters, the Private Detective Greyson speaks of Humphrey Bogart in "The Maltese Falcon" and the tenor of the writing takes on that flair.

As in noir films, things are not always as they seem, and dastardly villians may abound, as we navigate these thillers. The book "Time of Death: A Time Travel Detective Mystery", had a nastalgic feel of the weekly episodic movie serials.

As I told the author, the hardest thing is waiting for the next book to be written.
