Time Travel Rescue

Escape from the 21st Century

De: Tom Kranz

Narrado por: Zach Thrasher

Could you live in a world where personal vehicles are outlawed? Where coffee is a luxury for the elite? Where you are limited to three ounces of alcohol a day? Where food is manufactured? Could you live in a cube connected to thousands of other cubes in a massive complex that sits on the toxic remains of Mother Earth? This is the only life Rick has known in his 32 years.

Living in a wasteland that is beyond repair becomes too much for Rick who, like most of those left on the planet in 2212, works for the Big Five mega corporation. A chance online meeting with a young hacker named Chen leads to a perilous journey through a wormhole back to the 21st century, where he and Chen hope to set things right before they go terribly wrong.

Unbeknown to Rick is Chen’s propensity for violence, and her murderous exploits complicate an otherwise altruistic mission. Rick’s 21st-century guide, the smart and attractive Jill Strawbridge, introduces him to the charms and challenges of life 157 years before he was born. Their time together sparks mutual curiosity that draws them into something more than just a working relationship.

While Rick is charmed and intrigued by 21st-century life, Chen racks up murderous misdeeds that catch up to him. Will he accomplish his mission to change the course of events in the 21st century so that Earth's future is saved? Discover the answer by listening to Time Travel Rescue.

An unexpected surprise

This book delivered so much more than I expected from its summary.

The take on time travel mechanics was refreshing. The saving is from our distopian future was atypical in the direction it took.

The characters were memorable, empathetic and engaging. There were some very unexpected plot twists. And, without spoilers, let’s just say it does not end with everyone living happily ever after. Again, refreshing for a time travel novel.

The narrator was great. Good pacing and adding to my interest In The book.

I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a review.

Enjoyable Listen.

This is the genre of audiobook I listen to while driving to work and back, and I must say, I really enjoyed this book. The Story is very easy to follow and I love the depictions it gave me as I listened to it unfold. I love the main character and the way the world was described, every detail made me very interested in understanding the way things worked. The author did a great job on this one.

Exciting Trip That Pulled Me Into The Future

I drive alot on my job and recent loved listening to Tom Kranz's Time Travel Rescue in my car. To be honest, I am not a big sci fi fan, BUT.....I got pulled into this very exciting and imaginative tale of the future very quickly! I had to remind myself it was still 2020 and I am ok! The characters are all very well developed and like the Elmore Leonard books I have enjoyed, the dialog is superlative. Everything was so clearly written and the story was narrated so well that I felt as though I was watching a movie. And, in fact, I would love to see this novel on the big screen. After I finished the audio book, I spent some time casting the movie!
I recommend this book highly to all adventure lovers!

Finally a well written Time travel novel

I really enjoyed this audio. Storyline was unique and kept me interested where as most time travel series does not. Narrations was superb and just a touch of romance. I will be reading the second one now available.
