Publisher's summary

In 1988, 43-year-old Jeff Winston died of a heart attack. But then he awoke, and it was 1963; Jeff was 18 all over again, his memory of the next two decades intact. This time around, Jeff would gain all the power and wealth he never had before. This time around he'd know how to do it right. Until next time.

Wowed

I'm super happy that I tried this book, it was such an amazing journey! It's definitely not Groundhog Day by any means! Far more creative then I could have imagined, this book pulled me in and I had a hard time walking away. I'm sad that this journey is over but ever so happy that I got to go along for the ride.

Kept me interested

Makes you think what's important to you. Good story, was filled with mumbo jumbo scientific terms, but story easy to understand.

Incredibly written and performed

I'm in awe about how this short book can deliver such an resonating message in a fictional setting. What an absolutely incredible read with great plot development, and performed perfectly by the powerhouse narrator William Dufris. A must-read for anyone.

Please record the rest of the Grimwood novels!!!

I resisted listening to this for a long time because I thought it would be a slog (having not really enjoyed 11/22/63 or But this novel was good! So good! I would love to hear his other work!!!it manages not to feel dated, which I also feared. Such a worthy listen! I wouldn’t want to “Replay” it, but glad I had the experience!!!

Loved it!

I've read many "time travel" type books. That's kinda my "thing". I have to say, and I wasn't expecting this, the book was different than any others I've read. I only review books I find truly exceptional. Do I have to say more? I don't think you'll be sorry if you choose this book to spend a few hours enjoying.

Entertaining sci-fi story

I enjoyed this story quite a bit. Jeff Winston goes back to his youth with his current memory in tact on multiple occasions each time changing things as he can and trying to figure out what is happening. Meeting others like him, they try to figure things out. How many of these things would you do?

Incredible

This is the best audio book I have listened to yet. William Dufris does his usual great job, and he has fantastic source material to work with. You'll be thinking about this book, its characters, concepts and story long after you finish it. Do yourself a favor and get it.

Best time travel story for a while

The narratar did a great job with the multiple voices. I found myself losing sleep as i was transfixed to the story, wanting always just one more chapter. Was a little let down by the ending, though not sure if this is just because I was sad that it ended. Overall 8 / 10
