Her half-brother Ben didn’t sound thrilled when she asked if she could crash with him for a bit, but he didn’t say no, and surely everything will look better from Paris.

Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.

Beth Montgomery seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful house in the hills above Los Angeles, a handsome, ambitious husband, and plans of starting a family. So it doesn't occur to her to worry when the news breaks of a quadruple homicide across town, a botched drug deal that leaves an undercover officer among the dead. Beth certainly would never think to tie the murders to the sudden reappearance in her life of wild, sexy Cassie Ogilvy, the estranged best friend she hasn't seen since they were college roommates.

A Sci-Fi/Thriller That Really Pulls You In
- By B. Lane on 04-09-20
By: Michael Pogach
Publisher's summary
Say you're a time traveler and you've already toured the entirety of human history. After a while, the outside world might lose a little of its luster. That's why this time traveler celebrates his birthday partying with himself. Every year, he travels to an abandoned hotel in New York City in 2071, the hundredth anniversary of his birth, and drinks 12-year-old Scotch (lots of it) with all the other versions of who he has been and who he will be. Sure, the party is the same year after year, but at least it's one party where he can really, well, be himself.
The year he turns 39, though, the party takes a stressful turn for the worse. Before he even makes it into the grand ballroom for a drink he encounters the body of his 40-year-old self, dead of a gunshot wound to the head. As the older versions of himself at the party point out, the onus is on him to figure out what went wrong - he has one year to stop himself from being murdered, or they're all goners. As he follows clues that he may or may not have willingly left for himself, he discovers rampant paranoia and suspicion among his younger selves, and a frightening conspiracy among the Elders. Most complicated of all is a haunting woman - possibly named Lily - who turns up at the party this year, the first person aside from himself he's ever seen there.
For the first time, he has something to lose. Here's hoping he can save some version of his own life.

The living dead are more alive than ever! Zombies have become more than an iconic monster for the 21st century: They are now a phenomenon constantly revealing as much about ourselves - and our fascination with death, resurrection, and survival - as our love for the supernatural or post-apocalyptic speculation. Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.

Story
Matheus Taylor didn't ask to be murdered. To be fair, the percentage of people actually asking to be murdered is probably small enough to be safely ignored, but he felt it was worth stating regardless. His life might have been ordinary, but it was his life and he wasn't done with it yet. Quin didn't care. A 1,700-year-old Roman, Quintus Livius Saturnius had a different view of morality than most people. Killing Matheus and hijacking his undead existence seemed perfectly acceptable to him.

Very timey whimey!
Loved it! Only getting 4 stars because some places dragged a bit.
It was great very timey whimey in that he interacted with his own time line. This book would irritate The Doctor to no end, certain fixed points in time aren't really that fixed after all.

GREAT Listen...but you have to work for it
One of the things that makes it hard to write book reviews is that there is a conflict between wanting to express your own views and a duty to readers. My view is that this is maybe one of the best books I've read. It is Pynchon. It is one of a limited number of science fiction books that qualifies as literature. The author clearly worked this manuscript until it was perfect.
Ok....That was for me -- this is for you. Do not listen to this unless you really want to work on it. There are times it repeats. There are times it is relentlessly dystopian. There are times it is just plain sad and heartbreaking.
It is set in a not too distant post-something New York. Life is hard and not entirely well-balanced. There is a mystery, there is a dark humor. There is aggressive time-loopery. If you get to half way and think you want to kill this reviewer -- stick it out.

New take on paradox
This was a vividly told and engaging story. Not since Robert Silverberg's mid-'70s Up the Line has time travel been so meticulously explored and the paradoxes so deftly treated. Avoiding spoilers is difficult, but the relationships among the characters are surprising almost every time, and the plot is twistier than one of those new compact fluorescent lightbulbs.

Almost perfect
A great listen. Occasionally approaches the edge of "confusing" but never steps over it. Just twisty enough to keep you on your toes. A solid, smart book and a solid performance. I would put this on a "must-hear" list for time travel fans.

Award-worthy science fiction
I originally saw this book in the Science Fiction Book Club, but listened to it on Audible instead of reading it. I think it would be good in book format. It is excellent in audio format. The narrator keeps this story moving along nicely, and it is easy to lose track of time while listening to this book.
This is science fiction for readers who pay attention to the Hugo and Nebula awards, or are otherwise actively engaged in the field of science fiction literature. If you enjoy short stories by Ted Chiang, novels like The Time Traveler's Wife, or movies like Primer and Timecrimes, or Coherence you will enjoy this book. As in these stories, the tension (of which there is quite a lot) is built largely on ideas and character development rather than big explosions.
The books starts with main character visiting a hotel on his birthday. Every year, he time travels and goes to this same hotel on his birthday so he can interact with himself from other years since he has also travelled to this same hotel on this same day from other years. This is a book that is probably best experienced without a lot more explanation than that, so you can let yourself be carried away and experience the story along with the main character.
I first listened to this book about five yeas ago, and the story still sticks with me. It definitely ranks in the top 10% of listens that I've done on Audible. I still check back periodically to see if Audible has published any other fiction by Sean Ferell, but sadly, so far this has not happened.

Mind Bending Grandfather Paradox Thriller
Stumbled on this book last week, downloaded on a whim. One of the best audio purchases I have ever made.
The book has a very refreshing, unique, complicated premise. It is not the Grandfather paradox – it is more immediate – if you kill a different year’s version of yourself, what happens to your future ‘selves’?
The first half of the book is a race to escape within a nightmarish, claustrophobic scenario, where all the characters are the main protagonists at different ages, where one is a murderer, and one may, over the months, age to become the murder victim. The second half of the book takes its time to linger on events and the results of ones' actions. I was not sure how it could end - but the closing two scenes were pleasingly well done.
If you like a twisty puzzle of a book, set in a dystopian future with an element of time travel you will find this book extremely interesting.
Narration was perfect.

Your future self is telling you to skip this book.
In one version of your future you don't purchase this book and never realize how much better your life is. In another version you do buy this book, listen to it and wish you could go back in time and tell yourself not to. I'm living in that second version.
I love mind bending science fiction. I love those stories that are hard to follow. The ones you have to pay close attention to, but that have a big pay off. This one made me feel cheated.
The first 3 hours or so are great. It was hard to follow, but I was enjoying the crap out of it. Also, the last couple hours make you feel like it's going somewhere, that you're going to be impressed and that you didn't waste your time. However, when it is over you're left going, "that's not right! That can't be!"
Plus, there's about four hours in the middle that is just bad, boring writing where the characters act in strange ways for no particular reason. While suffering through that part I was thinking, "all this will have a significance in the end."
...BUT IT DOESN'T!
Then there are so many inconsistencies and unanswered questions and unexplained motives and...
I'm going to stop here. You get the point.

Up there with the best.
Though there is no shortage of science fiction with time travel elements in these days, also running in the cinemas, this book sets itself apart by its super attractive narcissistic concept.
All book long, you will linger between compassion for the protagonist, and a state of confusion with the elements of time paradox and destiny driving you close to madness. This has been one of my best listens ever.
Read this now before it is picked up and made into a movie. And by the way, the movie will be awesome!

Dark and Dystopic
I did not understand how dystopic the setting of this novel was from the summary or the reviews. One previous reviewer states that the story actually has two parts. I stopped listening several hours in, but before reaching a change in the story line. Didn't really get a feel for any other points in time or places other than a miserable hotel room in an abandoned city.
I was not feeling much of a time travel paradox nor could I figure out if time travel was available for anyone else to use other than the main character. The reader is rather unceremoniously inserted into the middle of this story and in the midst of people so different that it was hard to believe they were all different versions of the same time traveler.
