A nice short story that ends with a cliffhanger

It was a very fun story and anyone who loves time travel stories should enjoy it.

But I gave it 4 stars instead of five because it ended with a cliffhanger and I don't see any sequel. I'm very sad!

Enjoyable short read

The Amazing Adventures of Mr. Tinker: A Time Travel Novel, my sixth read from Dr. Paul Ibbetson. I was introduced to Ibbetson with his 50's ville quintet. Another enjoyable short read that captivated my attention. I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing it. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Engaging... a different take on time travel

I liked it... despite the rather cliff-hanger ending. In this case though, there is a story arch to hang onto at least.

Narrator is a great fit and adds to the story. More action and less meticulous description of each era visited keeps it moving well and maintained my interest.

Great time travel adventure

The Amazing Adventures of Mr. Tinker is a good time travel adventure novel with the interesting perspective of being set around the turn of the century, Mr. Tinker worked for Nikola Tesla, instead of the normal modern day or future setting. Great story with the advantage of being clean enough for a YA novel without being a YA novel.

The only issue I had with the first installment of the story is that each time hop was too quick. I would have like it if each adventure delved deeper into their experiences in each time period. This could have been increased to an 8 or 10hr adventure without slowing down the pace.

Quick time travel story

I enjoyed this short read. There is a lot of potential in the story of Mr. Tinker and his time machines. I'm hoping to see more volumes in the future.

I received this audiobook from the narrator/author/publisher in exchange for an honest review via Audiobook Boom.

Fun read

I was given this book for free at my request but the opinion is of my own. This was a very fun time travel story of a scientist who works for Tesla discovers time travel. He has to search for particular boxes with his assistant in order to keep the timeline in place. Easy fun read.

Wonderful! Wonderful!

Oh I really enjoyed this story and the story line is absolutely enjoyable and fun. My only complaint is that it was to short. Will definitely follow this author!!!

A quest cut short

This was an interesting time travel story. I would like to know what happens after he shoots Hitler but then it would be much longer. I enjoyed the story and that is all that matters.

Fun little Read

IM more of a fan of Fantasy but this was a nice change of pace a time travel short little book that was well done like the characters like the Narrator hope there will be more to this story as it ends on a cliff hanger

More story outline than a prequel

I liked the story premise but sometimes it had so much narration to fast forward the story that it feel more like the story outline than a short prequel for some adventure series based on the task of recovering the "chronoboxes" (as some of the time travels are address in a couple of paragraphs or lines).
I was expecting more from this story as it seams to have potential.
The narration was ok.
