Resumen del Editor

When a mysterious force known only as the Shadow infiltrates history, it has a suspicious target: the date October 29 in six different years spanning 999 to 1980. The Time Patrol must send its highly skilled members into the past with only twenty-four hours to stop the destruction each time.

Each targeted date features a significant event, including Sir Walter Raleigh's beheading in 1618, the American stock market crash of 1929, and the first Internet message sent in 1969. But the missions are never as clear-cut as they seem, leading the team straight into the dangerous paths of extraordinary adversaries, such as yetis, krakens, and Vikings.

As time grows short, the Time Patrol learns that no amount of training and experience can prepare them for the enemies they battle and the alternate realities they face. And now, six changes to history could lead to the ultimate catastrophe: the end of existence.

Amazing!

If you love science fiction, you'll love these books. I'm totally hooked! If you love military dramas this will also appeal to you. It has made me want to learn more about the events in the stories.

enjoying Bob's Books

I've been reading all of Bob Myers Area 51 the night stalkers and now the time patrol, and I'm on book 4 I believe of the time patrol and I starting to read Ides of March.

very enjoyable

listened to it 2 times in a row, very entertaining story line. give it a try

Awesome

I liked this book because it was very good because of the preforming and story

Time is the moment but hope is the future

The story is abit complexe for new readers has its based from the foundation of two outer series lay being effected by about a few outer series published by the author. I felt the author had used alot of the time to give new readers the facts about how things happen but it was a great story has theys tidbits are important. theys lead the story having a learning experience for the chacthers and read and made this novel important for the start of a series so was a great novel if any wants to listen.

Refreshing installment

Bob Mayer never ceases to amaze. I've read most of his books and this one is one of the top ones. I love the what ifs on history and can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Audible narrator is one of the best

I like the writings of Bob Mayer. I started the series with the NightStalkers and continued on to the Tme Patrol. Eric G Dove as the narrator makes the books come alive and is one of the best narrators I've listened to. I like the way he changes his voice to differentiate the characters and stays consistent with those voices. Driving back and forth to work is not boring listening to these stories and Eric G. Dove.

great book love it

Was like taking a stroll through history .
Will read the next book in the series

Interesting Story

This is the fifth book in the Nightstalker/Time Patrol series. Or the second if you only count the Time Patrol books, but you really do need to read the Nightstalker books to understand who these people are.
I like the story even though the Time Patrol books are very different from the Nightstalkers. What keeps me from giving it more stars is I’m not a fan of the narrator. Something about his voice rubs me the wrong way.

Ruined by Narrator

This may have been a good story. I wasn't able to find out as I could not get past the first 40 minutes of listening. The narrator makes no attempt at sounding like a professional performer. The biggest weakness in his performance is his casual treatment of words which makes this story sound like it is being told by a teenager, and makes every character, regardless off their background, race or nationality sound like a frat boy. He clips the ending "g" from all verbs and nouns that end in "ing" or "ng". Basically, everyone in the story is talkin' like they're just hangin' around the pool, even the Vikin's (normally referred to as Vikings). This is so consistent that once you realize what he is doin', it becomes as annoyin' as nails on a chalk board. Sir Walter Raleigh talkin' like this? Or a Vikin' killin' his enemies? Not very realistic. Secondly, he also bites off his R's like someone from "New Yawk" (or possibly Boston) and when two characters are havin' a dialogue, you can't tell their voices apart. I read a lot of this author's books, and they were all interesting and exciting. I am returning this and picking up the book instead. This narrator needs to take some speaking classes.
