About this listen

What if you could go back in time and change some of the mistakes that haunt your past? Matt Dunsratty did just that.

Matt found a way to erase his past regrets. He was an average guy who was pissing and moaning his way toward retirement. Like many people before him, he often wished things had gone differently for him. Be careful what you wish for!

Matt found out all too soon that the weight of being able to alter his past was much more than he could have anticipated. It all began one dull summer vacation as an experiment in transcendental meditation. Through meditation, Matt chanced upon the ability to plant his adult thoughts in the head of his younger selves, thus altering their shared future. But innocent meddling paves the way for increasingly selfish choices. Little by little, the Matt that once was is slowly stripped away. What remains is less and less recognizable and acceptable to his loved ones and himself.

When Matt reboots a high school romance, his future families are blown, shattered, and destroyed. Matt saves John Lennon from assassination to help his best friend. But Matt, in a fit of rage, reconsiders his rescue, even though the reversal will cancel the utopian future forged by Lennon. Matt learns that small changes make all the difference, and unlimited greed quickly leads to unending suffering. Can Matt save himself and his sanity?

Think Somewhere In Time meets Slaughterhouse-Five. Letters From Hell will keep you spellbound with its convoluted twists in time and Mathew Dunsratty.

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

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.

Good story but a little wordy

I really liked the story but felt a lot could have been cut out. It felt like it dragged at times and I would find myself thinking of something else and realizing I missed a bunch of it - but also realizing it didn't matter. I LOVE his Ryan books!! They are so awesome!! And they don't have this problem. I'll listen to the rest because it's a good story. I would recommend it, just be prepared for it to drag at times. But in the long run, it's worth it.

I feel like a need a hot mind cleansing scrub down to get this character out of my thoughts.

This read like a Twilight Zone episode preaching morality life lessons and warnings with the episode transforming into a Stephan King mind bending horror novel.
Mr Dunsratty (sh*ts-rat-ty-its all in the name of the “protagonist”) is unredeemable and un-likable and unforgettable.

It’s well and good enough to ponder what life would have been like if we’d made different decisions in the past. But given the opportunity to make such changes, well, we may not like the end results-or even the person end up becoming.
Ponder those “what-if’s”, but let the thought experiment go at some point. Re-engage in reality and the actual life you are currently living and find peace in knowing this is the only life you will ever have and put the remaining energy you leave left into making the best decisions you can in the here and now and move on with the life you have RIGHT now.
I wish I have never gotten to know Matt Poo-rat-ty. What a total waste of a character. It’s very difficult to feel compassion for anyone so ugly on the inside….

The book is well planned, executed and written. The protagonist is well developed. Overall, the process of writing this book is spot on. However, I prefer the positive,snarky sarcasm (if that’s a possible thing) of the timewars last forever series much better, if I must be honest.

boring, difficult to get through, what a waste.

Boring, I had to set the speed to 1.25 to make it slightly better. The narrator does his best however The story definitely shows the inmaturity of the character. There's no real character growth or depth. I believe it was a waste of my credit. I have enjoyed many of this authors books but this is not one of them.

Don’t buy this book.

I have loved and read over 15 Craig Robertson space fantasy books. Do not buy this book. The title is TIME DIVER, but it is pedantic and beyond boring.

a good story

A good story. That requires a sharp mind to follow along. Brilliant writing. It's as if Dean Koonts wrote an episode of the Twilight Zone.

Could not finish

the story was too wordie and the plot so lame. I can't tell if I cringed or fast-forwarded more. I'm the end, which was Chapter 20, the dread of listening was greater that the anticipation of realizing the actual ending of the book.

Not SciFi

I didn't enjoy this book. I kept listening waiting for it to get better. I just ended up disliking the main character more and more. The writing was all over the place, and at best this is some twisted fantasy fiction, not SciFi.

Amazing mind and intellectual Craig Robertson

I couldn’t stop listening until I finished… Deep thinking and narration of life’s significant events from 1st teen sex to endless love to time travelling meditation with personal outcomes from the imagination. …..

Laborious, boring, tedious

I’m going to discover how to return this work to Audible. I have enjoyed other works by Craig Robertson but definitely not this one. The premise held promise but it was tough getting through the chapters one by one until I just had to stop. Reading a work of fiction should be pleasant, not a chore. This work had no redeeming features that made me want to continue.
