Time Stands Still: La Sombra

De: Frank LaCroix

Narrado por: Jennifer Walls

In a twist of fate, a young Latino girl acquires a strange gift and can control time only for herself.

Penny reminds us: "Time is strange, and I would have thought it had many paths, but for some reason, you can't go back. My path leads to ruin." Penny's only hope, she thought, was to steal a "time machine" and go to an unknown future, where she finds things become more terrible than she ever thought possible.

Penny then takes the time to tell us her story. With the nature of what time is, the trip can lead only one way. There is no path back home.

Great Start to A Sci-Fi Adventure

Refreshingly fast paced. Great start for (hoping) a series of short stories that continue "La Sombra's" adventure. Without spoiling the read, I enjoyed the evolution of a girl who gains a 'power' as the story progresses into a sci-fi whirlwind. A novella with layers. I look forward to what comes next.

Must Know More!

The first part of the story was setting up to a momentous ending. The character Penny is very relatable and her thoughts and feelings are vividly expressed. The ending is definitely not "the end" of this story. Can't wait for more!

Great Sci-Fi Story

This author must have been a real Sci-Fi fan in his youth by bringing back my memories of old movies like "The Time Machine" and all "Star Trek" ones. Good read, ready to read or listen to Book 2. I will place him on my list of new "upcoming authors".

Interesting Start

This is a very interesting story with lots of fascinating and fun concepts. The format is rather unique in the audiobook world. I've talked to the author, and he explained his vision for audiobooks that are adapted to maintain the pace of films and television. This is a fascinating idea, and I look forward to listening to his future works.

Wow!

I honestly can’t wait for the next book! This is a must read if you are looking for something that will pull you in!
