Most enjoyable

Revisado: 03-10-25

The thing I liked most in the book is that the MC is someone you can respect and like. Billy is resourceful, brave and decent.
Also, Hosker paints an accurate picture of the past and doesn't disregard the brutal reality, but without the woke guilt trips that ruin a story.
The narrator was brilliant.
My only complaint is that it was too short.

Highly enjoyable listen. If you like roman history, humor, adventure and a detective story, this one is for you. I had a blast. My only complaint is that it was too short.

Pretty Good

Revisado: 06-11-24

Credible time travel story. Far from the worst in this category and I suggest you give it a try.
I am interested in a sequel.

Excellent Time Travel Story

Revisado: 04-27-24

If you are into the time travel genre, you will enjoy this book. The story is slightly more nuanced, at least relative to most books I read. The book does not focus on technology but more on the impact a person out of time can have on society and politics. Well worth the credit.

Not worth the time

Revisado: 04-18-24

No story, just an endless recitation of primitive production methods.
The author is probably a good engineer but a horrible story teller.

Solid Time Travel Book

Revisado: 03-26-24

Overall, I enjoyed the book and if you like this genre then you should give a chance.
I have two issues:
1. The book focused too much on the technical. Not enough on the politics of the era and not a lot of adventure.
2. Too easy. The protagonist tranfored his society with almost no backlash.
Nice listen

One of the best in the series

Revisado: 05-06-22

The mysteries surrounding Nilo and the connection between the savages and the House of Reason are somewhat unraveled.

What I liked most about this installment is that the authors are merging threads from the “Savage Wars” and from “Contracts and Terminations”. If you haven’t read/ listened to these books, you will still understand. If you have, it will be even better.
The thing I liked most about this book is that Garret, Death, and MakRaven had their time to shine. Only problem is that you know what happens to leejes that Bubbles choose as handlers (not sure who is handling who with this voodoo dog). Death really kicked ass in this installment and so did Garret, in his own way.

R.C. Bray was, of course, amazing. Nothing I can write that will do him justice.

I hope this has been helpful. I wish you as much enjoyment as I had from this book.

To Nick and Jason: Thank you!

What a Blast!!!

Revisado: 03-04-21

Usually, I don’t go for sci-fi and fantasy melds, but I am a huge fan of Anspach & Cole, so I took a chance. It was AMAZING !!!
The Plot: Some Chinese nano-plague is destroying our world. To prevent the total annihilation of civilization, the U.S. government is sending a company of U.S Army Rangers 10,000 years ahead in time. When the Rangers arrive, they discover that the world is turned into a D&D fantasy horror. The rangers face Orcs, vampires, trolls, and whatnot, all against overwhelming odds. Somehow they make it; through sheer guts, grit, ingenuity, and killer instincts. Rangers being rangers (not that I know, I never served in the U.S Army), they got the job done.
The protagonist: Talker, is a linguist turned ranger. Talker is a Ph.D., a nerd, and a caffeine junkie; he is also a gifted intel operative and not shy about killing people or things if the situation requires. As usual with A&C, the cast is full of unique characters such as Captain Knife-Hand, the company commander, The deadly Sergeant Kurtz, PFC Soprano, and others that will blow you away.
The Narrator: Terrific performance. This narrator is first class, just as good as R.C Bray and Mark Boyett.
Very nicely done! I am already looking for the next book.
