That Was Now, This Is Then

Long Time, Book 2

By: Michael Z. Williamson

Narrated by: Dennis Holland

In a follow-up to groundbreaking A Long Time Until Now, master of military SF Michael Z. Williamson sends epoch-displaced soldier Sean Elliott and his crew on a rescue mission within the folds of time itself

Soldiers out of time

Then: First Lieutenant Sean Elliott and nine other mixed-service US soldiers on a convoy in Afghanistan suddenly found themselves and their MRAP vehicle thrown back to Earth’s Paleolithic Age. And they were not alone. Displaced Romans, Neolithic Europeans, and more showed up as well. Some would be allies. Some became deadly foes.

Now: Scientists from an almost unimaginably far future need the survivors’ advice and support to reconnoiter and ultimately recover other groups displaced in time. There's just one problem. Not all of those other groups want to be recovered or even understand where they are. Prehistory is an ugly place, fascinating to visit, but no place for a civilized person to live. But the future, gorgeous as it is, has a darker side that dampens the appeal. In the end, only inventiveness, grit, and a thirst for freedom from the fickle tides of time can keep Sean and the displaced Americans alive and on a path to finally find a place—and a time—to call home.

eagerly waiting

I've become attached to the squad .. and can't wait for the next in the series.

Plot twist

Don't want to give it away but I have to type more characters to g

Great book. Needs a sequel

Loved this book, great series, definitely needs a sequel. Fingers crossed and looking forward to it

Not bad except for...

I have enjoyed these books for the most part. This last one had a graphic and unnecessary interracial sex scene that was disgusting. Except for that and the heavy focus on sex I enjoyed the story.

Edge of your seat reading!

I just finished this second installment and already cant wait for the next.
Characters all seem like real peaple. Naraitive is thought provoking and leaves me extremly ready to find out what next will happen. Love the interactions between other times and our stalwart contemporary heros.

Outstanding

While not quite to same level as the first, this is an outstanding book and if the author continues to put the depth into the character and story without compromising to the masses
this could become a great series.

obsessed with breakfast

I really enjoyed the story but dude was obsessed with breakfast the detailed description of what everyone was eating just made me hungry you can take that as a positive or A negative it's just a thing

Can’t wait for book 3

Love the series hopefully we get another book soon. Great story great narration. If you liked the first this book won’t disappoint

Excellent sequel!

Can’t wait for a third book to this series. The revelations at the end just leave me wanting more.

A decend followup

I missed some of the characters and I could have done without the sex but it was an interesting book. I will listen to the next book when it comes out.
