Resumen del Editor

An engineer finds himself in an alternate reality, Cornwall, in the year 715 A.D. He awakens in the body of a young Baron.

Retired Lieutenant General, former head of the Army Corp of Engineers, lies dying at the age of ninety-two. Leading a full life, he is a decorated veteran of World War II, Korea, and Viet Nam.

His love of engineering has him taking university courses his entire life. When his health falters, and he can no longer continue his education, MIT awards him an honorary PhD in Professional Studenting.

After a long illness, he lies dying. His last thought is, "What a waste of such wonderful knowledge."

As he fades to black, the fun begins. He is to build a modern civilization without being burned as a witch!

Solid Time Travel Book

Overall, I enjoyed the book and if you like this genre then you should give a chance.
I have two issues:
1. The book focused too much on the technical. Not enough on the politics of the era and not a lot of adventure.
2. Too easy. The protagonist tranfored his society with almost no backlash.
Nice listen

I love Daniel Thomas May’s performance

Daniel Thomas May is able to read dry facts, figures, and formulas in an engaging way. He was able to make listening to how hard iron and steel are made interest from the story. Enjoyed his Apocalypse redux audios and picked up this book which I’ve read because he was the main narrator. I will continue to get the baron cast in time series from Ed Nelson when I see if done continues to record them. Thanks for performing this book. I loved it.

Just what I was looking for.

I have been looking for a story like this and this definitely scratch that itch. The narration took me awhile to get used to since the MC sounds flat but later I realized that this was to differ him from the 8th century people. I love stories stories about using modern knowledge in the past.

If you enjoyed Destiny's Crucible or Long Time Until Now you will enjoy this. I can't wait to listen to the next one in the series!

engineer goes back in time

I love the what ifs a modern person was sent back with no powers. Fantastically done and believable. now I do not know if the mining was accurate for the areas but it is engaging. Definitely more on the crafting side than war but still engaging

Bad Writing

Undertones of racism and sexism. Terrible dialogue. Cool concept, badly written. The author projecting himself into a situation where he’s smarter and better and knows the best thing for everybody.
