Publisher's summary

Traveling into the past using the timelines of ancient artefacts, the Oblivion Order explore the forgotten centuries, ones that never made it into the history books. Weaving back through time, the secret society of eccentric anachronists ensures the best possible future for humanity, making subtle adjustments to the past—saving us from oblivion. Every alteration is carefully calculated, and nothing is left to chance. Until the day Joshua Jones, a teenage thief, breaks into one of their station houses and finds himself transported back to 1944—where he accidentally changes the outcome of WW2. Josh is inadvertently pulled into their secret world of alternate realities, temporal guilds and chaos demons. With the help of Caitlin, a beautiful librarian, he learns to harness his abilities as she shows him a future he never dreamed he could have. But beyond the temporal borders, an ancient evil is gathering, threatening to devour every moment that ever was. Will Josh fulfil his destiny? Will he come to terms with his past? A fast-paced time travel adventure, Anachronist will take you on a journey into a world not bound by the rules of time, exploring history and the consequences of changing it.

Very well done

I thought it was well thought out and performed. The reader did a spot on Sean Connery impression,.

Very Entertaining

This is definitely a page turner. I have read many time travel novels, but none like this. I enjoyed the story and the performance. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because there were some incorrect scientific statements (Very simple; not quantum mechanics) and a few places where the incorrect vocabulary was used. The performance is wonderful except in a couple of places where the narrator got his character voices mixed. Most people wouldn't even notice these minor errors.

Pleasantly Surprising

The book was a slow start, but after it got rolling, has been one of the most intriguing I’ve ever read/listened to.

Well thought out and meaty!

An entertaining Time Travel Fantasy worth the read. Strikes good balance; Gritty enough to hold the more mature reader... some nifty handling of Time Mechanics that are relatively fresh... Enough gears and gadgets for a steampunk enthusiast... Enough modernity to call it Urban Fantasy,.. Enough romance without being laden with excessive Teen Angst... Enough unsolved mystery in the story and mechanics to properly justify a series going forward. Excellent and talented Narration by Rupert Degas.
