Publisher's summary

What if you suddenly found yourself two years into the future?

In an altered and terrifying world where you are the last hope for humanity?

TV star Rob Gryffon is living this nightmare.

Arriving from vacation, two years into the future, Rob’s fiancé is dead and an invading army of demon creatures, called the Wolt, rampage across the Canadian Northwest. Rob soon learns he is the center of an ancient alien prophecy where it is his destiny to turn back these demons and save the human race.

The reluctant TV star’s life continues to unravel as he bounces back through time, from this horrible future to his own past, where his fiancé’ Taylor still lives and is on her own path that could alter Rob's future world. Chased across these diverging timelines by the US Army, the NSA, and monsters of yore, Rob enlists the help of many memorable characters as he searches for answers to his doomsday dilemma: Who are the Wolt? When and where did they arrive? And can he find out in time to prevent the Great Trespass?

Time Travel, Aliens and More

Rob Gryffon has a unique life. Not only is he a well-known TV star but time travels as well. Of course, he wasn’t aware of this new talent until he woke up two years into the future! He has a mission now, thrust upon him that involves the US Army, aliens, timelines gone amok, and saving the world from destruction by the Wolts!

The author, Steve Teets is a creative world builder and driver of action. The confusion Rob felt, in the beginning, reminded me of someone suffering from a dissociative identity disorder. Given Rob’s inability to reconcile waking up two years into the future and other time jumps, made it more so. I found this complex and at times a bit difficult to follow but the chapter breaks were announced by a bell noise and the narration would pick up with a date so as long as you realized this, you could follow the story easier. The listener begins to hope, right along with Rob, that things will work out but the plot twists keep the listener hooked.

The narrator, Stone Smith provided a solid performance in which he spoke clearly and precisely with subtle intonations to signify the action. In addition, he spoke with a steady cadence and brought the book to life.

If you enjoy time travel, aliens, and lots of action, this is a great listen. Although the bell ring at the beginning of each chapter was interesting and I liked it, I was not prepared for it. As a result, I missed the vital dates and times that followed it and that would have allowed me to figure out what was going on earlier.

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook.

Kept you guessing

This book truly kept me not knowing what was going to happen next. Took about 30 minutes to get me into it. But once there , I binged it in 24 hours. Narrator does a fantastic job bringing it to life. Fantastic range of voices.

Not my usual type of read - But FANTASTIC!

This story grabs ahold of you and takes you on a fantastical journey through time and imagination. Loved the story and can’t wait for the next book. Great writing Steve!
