Sideswiped

By: Kim Harrison

Narrated by: January LaVoy

BONUS MATERIAL: INCLUDES THE PROLOGUE AND FIRST CHAPTER OF THE DRAFTER, THE FIRST NOVEL IN KIM HARRISON’S NEW SERIES!

Don’t miss this thrilling first look into the elite world of Peri Reed, government agency operative extraordinaire, and catch more of her character in The Drafter, the first book in the all-new suspense trilogy from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison, out September 1.

Every hero, even the accidental ones, have a beginning.

Silas’s radical theory that drafters are not replaying time as much as they are temporarily sliding into an alternate universe has never been well-received, but frankly, the darling of Opti’s research has enough clout not to care, until a professor with a grudge tries to put a permanent end to it. Love can’t alter time, and sometimes, even being able to rub out a single mistake isn’t enough…

I THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT SERIES!!!

What made the experience of listening to Sideswiped the most enjoyable?

This was narrated really well...and I love Kim's writing....always have!

What did you like best about this story?

The concept is really cool!

What about January LaVoy’s performance did you like?

January nailed it...she is excellent!!!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I did, its a short one...and it kept my attention all the way through!!!

Any additional comments?

I was excited to see this was available on audible, and downloaded it immediately! I am a big Kim Harrison fan, and I think this is going to be a great new series... These are University students, learning how to manipulate time, and complete missions...They call it drafting....This is more Silas's story and he has been working on this concept and how to advance the time they can manipulate...Super interesting concept....and I am going to pre-order book 1 now..You also get a preview at the end of this book...I think this new series is going to be super great!!!

Was so much better than expected!

Would you listen to Sideswiped again? Why?

After reading reviews of this new series, I came into it tentatively. I started with this one with the thought that if I wasn't engaged, I didn't have to carry forward to The Drifter. However, I found this book entertaining, emotionally satisfying, and a perfect introduction to a new premise from a well loved author. I am moving forward with The Drifter and hoping for the best! Having said that, Peri was not my favorite character in the book. She's not very likable. I'm taking it on faith that Kim Harrison will create the same connection between the reader and the protagonist that she's famous for with the change in point-of-view.

Drafter University

This short story is the prologue for Kim Harrison's The Peri Reed Chronicles. We meet Silas, Allen, and Perri as well Silas' great love Summer. I did get a little confused regarding where the final exam was taking place and the ending was a bummer. However, it was an enjoyable quick read. #slicktechnoscifi #hulkynerd #timetravel #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

Wow, Love It!

Funny, because I was disappointed by "The Drafter", but I enjoyed this short story much more. I suspect that I would have enjoyed The Drafter more had I read/listened to this book first. It develops the characters much better, and more importantly makes me care about them. It gives me hope for this series!

Hmmmm...

What did you like best about Sideswiped? What did you like least?

Overall this story didn't really grab me. I had just finished reading the Rachel Morgan series, and was hoping her next series would be my next love. I'm going try try again with the first full-length novel - this is a short prequel.

Would you ever listen to anything by Kim Harrison again?

Yes, I am planning to listen to the Rachel Morgan series at some point.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No.
