Publisher's summary

The United States’ past is hijacked in a time-warping adventure of future interdimensional, high-risk games by the bestselling author of the CHRONOS series.

History is turned inside out when off-world travelers challenge Tyson Reyes and Madi Grace to a real-life game of Temporal Dilemma. Three rounds from the opponents and Hitler takes Europe, Pearl Harbor never happens, a fascist cloud hangs over the postwar United States, and CHRONOS itself is erased from existence.

Now Tyson, Madi, and a team of seasoned players must make their moves - in 1930s New York. Jazz and the blues waft from Village clubs. The World’s Fair draws assassins. Madison Square Garden hosts Nazis. And the Manhattan Project never gets off the ground.

Tyson and Madi have only three days to undo the strategy that changed the tides of war and the fate of the world. A surprise survivor from CHRONOS could be their best hope for flipping the timeline. If he’s on their side. But can they risk trusting him when the past, the future, and the lives of millions hang in the balance?

Perfection once again!

Amazing addition to the series! Once again Walker doesn’t disappoint, can’t wait for the next!

Time travel fans. WOW Excellent

I read the first Book, loved it....When the second came out I got both on Audio they stream seamlessly. Well narrated.. My preference is more then one voice.
This took me completely by surprise and gave me a new perspective on ,"The Butterfly Effect". I am an avid reader and listner 7 plus books a week. Have fun on your reading or listening adventure.

My WoW is to the author, Thank you,

Great story.

Not enough exposition. I usually hate a lot of exposition but in this case the story just started where the last one left off. if you, like myself, read the first one a long time ago maybe reread it. Other than that I really enjoyed it, great book.

Character

I like the story, but there are a lot of unlikeable characters. Katherine is probably the most annoying character that I have ever came across. Most of the others are just okay.

Twists and turns

A good story with plenty of time bending storylines to keep the reader engaged. Looking forward to the next book.

Not ad good as the original Chronos series.

I have listened repeatedly to the original series with Kate Pierce Keller, Trey, and Kiernan etc. I love it each time I hear it. it is a good story, very detailed surroundings and good character development. As for this second series, "Now, Then, and Everywhen" was decent, it still had a bit of a story but that's it. the characters of Madi, Kathryn. Tyson and company severely lack authenticity. They're very two dimensional. This book however is awful. I felt like I was listening to a very boring, very long, terrible history lesson in AU form. The author spent very little time on the characters and even an actual storyline. If you are a fan of the original Chronos stories you will be severely disappointed. The few times when I was able to decipher the storyline from the AU historical content was fairly decent I suppose, but the storyline was lost the majority of the time.

Male narrative is insufferable!

Can't manage to listen to the story due to the extremely grating narration. Please NEVER employ this narrator ever again, the female is quite bad enough!
