Meet Wendy Wood. The popstar that never was…
In 1982, Wendy Wood was poised on the brink of stardom. Lead singer with talented local band, Velvet Temptation, she was a rising star of the Oxford music scene. Tipped for fame by the music press, success seemed inevitable.
But conflict within the band, a series of betrayals and infidelities, and an unwelcome run of bad luck all played a part in shattering her dreams.
Forty years later, her health failing, Wendy’s only comfort is in karaoke nights, where every song is a poignant reminder of what might have been.
Then, out of the blue, she’s handed the means to return to the past. Determined to rewrite her destiny, Wendy is steadfast in her pursuit of the fame that once slipped through her fingers.
Join Wendy as she immerses herself in the vibrant music scene of 1982, navigating the complexities of love, ambition, and second chances in this thought-provoking time travel story.
1982 is part of the anthology series, A Year in the Life. Each book revisits a different aspect of life in the 1980s, and each story can be enjoyed standalone.

The tie in to the Punk/New Wave scene was great
Great concept and a good entertaining listen. I am a time travel junkie and it can be very hard to find good time travel books. The concept of representing every year of the 80's in a series makes this even better as I have fond memories of that time. I also like that these are a set in the UK. Being from the US you get a bit of a different perspective on the events and people described. Also learning all the British colloquialisms is enjoyable. I usually do not like series books because they never seem to end. Each of these stories has a defined end and the next one just holds on to the premise with new characters and situations. Give it a shot.

The series is starting to get a little stale
Where the first book they were sent back in time for a couple major things and while doing them, he was also able to fix his life a bit the last two books and especially this one it seems unlikely that a power that great would send someone back just so they could become famous I did like the main character and some of the other characters as well. I probably will give the book series one more try.
