The Original One Girl Revolution

I was good, right up until the ending. (SPOILERS)

Revisado: 06-06-23

This works as a thought experiment. Though, at a certain point I realized the science behind it mimicked Quantum Leap. However, instead of doing good deeds and having a companion help along the way, Mr. Dunsratty spirals into a horror story. Everyone suffers in this story. No one is redeemed. Even likable characters are forever ruined after having only briefly known the main character. It's so unlike EVERYTHING Craig has written before that I was waiting for a punchline that never came.

Love Paolini. HATED this story.

Revisado: 06-01-23

There is so much possibility. So much hope. And, consequently, an exponential amount of disappointment. I loved To Sleep In A Sea Of Stars. This had less than nothing to do with it. The characters refuse to have any redeeming qualities. The story poses puzzle after puzzle work no answers. NONE. How do you write in questions without ever answering a single one? Not even accidentally??? It doesn't even feel like experimental fiction. It feels like a pointless free-write that accidentally ended up at the publisher's office.

Outstanding storytelling

Revisado: 09-05-22

Don't expect quite the same level of hard science as the Bobiverse stories but this has some great ideas hiding as fiction. As always, Mr. Taylor writes clear, emotional dialogue that is easily relatable and stays consistent with each character. Of course, not nearly enough can be said about Mr. Porter's narration. It feels just like each character was written with his inflection in mind, making it possible to get fully caught up in the story and connect well with the characters. Awesome book! I've already bought all of Mr. Taylor's books and will HAPPILY continue to do so.

Outstanding! Phenomenal! Every overused adjective!

Revisado: 05-12-22

This is my perfect book. Time travel. A little romance. Earth shattering conspiracies. Humor! Don't forget humor! If you've read Ryan before, be jealous. I just discovered him and I'm about to deep dive.

First review, worst book.

Revisado: 12-31-21

There's nothing redeeming here. Pure pulp, forgettable characters, random and gratuitous sexuality, no science and no humanity. If you want erotica, fine. If you want action and plot, look elsewhere.

Dina Pearlman nearly ruined this for me.

Revisado: 04-12-21

I adore these books and would gladly recommend reading it to anyone... everyone. However, I use Audible to listen while I work and drive. Hearing David & Leigh's work BUTCHERED so blatantly made me so angry I had to take time to say it in writing. It's not Darren, IT'S GARAN, with a G. That's important to the story. The entire Rivan line starts with a G. Phrases like "the palm of his eye" are just ridiculous and not how they're written. Dina is obviously speaking without reading the material and miss-speaking far too often to just be ignored. It's more than distracting. For someone like me, who has read this series more than once, IT'S MADDENING. I thoroughly wish that someone else had narrated this volume. If they ever do, I'll buy it and happily delete this one.

Pure, well-written, well-produced fun

Revisado: 08-26-18

Firstly, this being Audible, Corey Gagne is a true talent. When you're able to enjoy the story without wincing at horrible accents, annoyingly bad character voices and poor pronunciations then it's magical. Corey celebrates the story and steps aside, leaving the author's vision room to shine. The story? It's perfect. Some people like to compare Matt to authors like Adams or Pratchett. That's wholly inappropriate because Matt's created something unique, that can stand just fine on its own. No matter who you are, you'll enjoy these fun, funny and touching stories.
