When physicist Michael Shelborne mysteriously vanishes, his son, Shel, discovers that he had constructed a time-travel device. Fearing his father may be stranded in time - or worse - Shel enlists Dave Dryden, a linguist, to accompany him on the rescue mission.

Their journey through history takes them from the Enlightenment of Renaissance Italy through the American Wild West to the civil rights upheavals of the 20th century. Along the way, they encounter a diverse cast of historical greats, sometimes in unexpected situations. Yet the elder Shelborne remains elusive. And then Shel violates his agreement with Dave not to visit the future. There he makes a devastating discovery that sends him fleeing back through the ages and changes his life forever.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"As the paradoxes begin to pile up and their luck in dodging some of history's villains runs out, McDevitt ingeniously handles a tricky denouement that will leave readers satisfied." ( Publishers Weekly)

Narrator started off real slow but was much improved by the end of the first chapter and was actually excellent there after. I enjoyed the time travel aspect where the two main characters travelled to witness many different events but found I didn't really care about the characters over all and though I finished the book just to see how it ended, thinking maybe it would be worth it, it wasn't in my opinion.

Enjoyed the time travel aspect

This book starts out fast and takes you for a wild ride. But this is a ride you will never want to get off! This is a wonderful listen, and I was motivated to purchase it in paper form. Well crafted and with an honest look at history, this book never fails to entertain while involving your intelligence to keep up.

A wild ride...

I've had this audiobook for years. It is the only Jack McDevitt book I haven't finished (and re-read multiple times) because... I hate time travel stories where you go visit historic figures and events and then someone's device gets broken and now it's the "gotta get two lions and a rabbit across the river when only two can fit in the boat at a time" puzzle.

Weirdly, I love the Dr. Who BBC series, which is based on the same premise of moving around in time, but our main character there is a time traveler who isn't human and has a TARDIS and knows what he's doing. So I guess it's not the same.

Anyway, turns out that even the awesomeness of McDevitt can't get me to enjoy a time travel book. This is my only McDevitt audiobook, so there's also the possibility that for me, his books are meant to be read and not listened to. The narrator is perfectly good at his job, no shade being cast here. For whatever reason, I don't like the characters.

I'm stubborn, I'll keep trying to get through it. Hoping the payoff at the end is worth it.

Tried multiple times to finish this one

I was spellbound with this book and fascinated by all the possibilities it opens up. The characters were interesting and full all were well done. The performance was fantastic. I put my life on hold and listened to it straight through!

Great Story! Well written and performed

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I love time travel novels. Unfortunately I didn't listen to more than 30 minutes of this. I had to stop because the reader is so irritating. He reads each sentence as if it were filled with hidden meaning, the phrase that is the turning point of the story. Each comma or period a signal for a long meaningful pause. Listen carefully to his reading in the preview. That's what you will be hearing for each sentence of the story, (long pause) I said.

Histrionics: a period means a 'pregnant pause'
