Publisher's summary

Run from the past. Run from the future. Run for your lives.

He's a novice time traveler in a big universe.

Ben just wants time with the scientist's daughter who got him into this, but when he's rooked into competing in a chronothon - an Amazing Race through time - getting the girl means he'll need to make the finish line. When he finds out this competition is more than just a sprint through history, winning takes a back seat to surviving. To save the people he loves, he'll have to conquer the real dangers hidden in the shadows of the chronothon.

The world of time travelers expands in this next installment of the In Times Like These series. Fans of book one will find more to love, but new listeners can jump right in and enjoy this stand-alone story. Expect action, adventure, and romance on this journey through past and future. Fresh dangers will arise for Ben and company in a quest for the finish line, where failure to keep up will cost more than just a shot at glory - it could mean the end for them all.

Best time travel story

Would you consider the audio edition of The Chronothon to be better than the print version?

Never read the book but I loved the audio the Narrator brought life to the book so he made a very enjoyable.

What other book might you compare The Chronothon to and why?

A mixture of Dr. Who and Terry Parchet there is a mixture of humor and suspense.

What about Neil Hellegers’s performance did you like?

They way put everything in it. The perfect way he brought different voices and tones it was like he was enjoying tell the tale as he read to me always aces in my opinion.

Any additional comments?

It always nice to have a villain that is not just evil for evil sake. When they a have a somewhat ration point and you can see there it from their point of view.

Excellent 2nd book In series

After enjoying the first book in this series so much, I was worried the second book wouldn’t be as good. I was pleasantly surprised and have become a fan. I look forward to listening to the next time travel adventure.

Best time travel book I’ve read

I like the first book a lot, but this book I never wanted to end and couldn’t put it down.

Very entertaining

Has the second book in the series I felt of this book did a great job of continuing the story. It was well paced and kept your attention throughout. I was especially enthralled with all the details that were put into the story in order to make it seem plausible. I highly recommend the series to everyone.

THE BEST TIME TRAVEL ADVENTURE STORY EVER!

I've read hundreds of science fiction books, including many in the "time travel" genre, and written a couple of myself. After listening to the first book in this series I couldn't imagine how a time travel story could surpass the "excellent adventures" of all the others I've read. I was amazed and thrilled to discover how much I underestimated the possibilities! The first book was a Home Run. The second book is a GRAND SLAM! I'm downloading the 3rd book now!! This series is Big League story telling that lights up the score board on every page. Every science fiction fan should read this series!

Best Time Book Yet

I have always loved time travel stories. I never even heard of the multiverse until about a year ago. The concept of a multiverse blew me away. This novel / series is the best of both ideas and then some. I am not bright in the study of physics but the concepts explained in this series is dumbed down enough for a simpleton like me. Great character development. Not overkill on gushy sappy romance stuff. Narrator contributes great to the main character and is not annoying - annoying narrators kill any story regardless of how good a novel is. Only knock (but maybe its a neat twist I haven't fully comprehended) is all the tight spots ben gets out of which were somewhat ridiculous... but I guess so is time travel. Or is it?

Great series so far!

Loved it! Great series so far. it's kinda like back to the future on crack! I would love to see this series on the big screen or on tv! the narrator does a great job with conveying the tension and danger in the various scenes... of which there are many! On to the next book right now!

Lots of fun

Great series great narration action from beginning to end. They should make a movie. Fun

Really great Book to listen to!

Author did a phenomenal job writing this book/series. And the narrator has done a fantastic job at narrating it. I just love the thought process with the time travel I’m the story. It’s not the normal “I can go anywhere anytime” situation. I love the fact that you have to actually plan your trip, select “anchors” and be careful how you travel. It’s a clever way of thinking about time travel. Other then the tv series doctor who, I think this is one of my favorite stories.
