Publisher's summary
In this combination of the novels New Frontier and Final Frontier, this is the story of alternate timelines, partial political thriller, and time travel, in which a United States President is kept from being assassinated, but there are other unintended consequences as a result.
In 1976, Ronald Reagan becomes President of the United States, declares the U.S. will plant a base on the moon by 1980 and a base on Mars by 1989. The Iranian Hostage Crisis occurs, but Reagan issues a stronger response, but as a result, Osama bin Laden rises to power earlier than he normally would have in the prime timeline.
Meanwhile, The Soviet Union decides to build a starship that will travel to the stars because they want to one-up the United States, but as is usually the case, nothing seems to go right.
In the early 1990s the U.S. and the Russians join forces, which leads the joint venture to the other side of the galaxy by means of a wormhole. When they attempt to return to Earth, they find themselves in the past, where they try to fix certain events in the past while they wait for history in general to catch up to where they launched the joint mission to begin with. Things go wrong as events do not play out as planned and numerous cases of unintended consequences result from the multiple attempts at fixing the timeline.

Story has the quality of a high school book report
Really disappointed. Book started off so interesting, but soon became irritatingly superficial with poorly written descriptions and an even more ridiculous story line.

Awful Narration
I honestly couldn't say if this is a good book or not. The narrator has no energy, the editing is such that I can barely discern character and scene transitions, and overall I can't get very far into it without being put off. Maybe the text is better? Who knows. Please, authors, publishers, do NOT skimp on good narration!

Performance was horrible
Would you try another book from Cliff Ball and/or Keith Slane?
No I would not listen to another book done by Keith Slane, Im not normally picky on narration but in this case it was really bad. I might read another book by Cliff Ball
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
The time travel aspect was the most interesting. The least interesting was the terrorism arc, in many places it wasn't believable.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Poor speaking voice, inability to speak in a general dialect, in many areas was almost totally monotone. I've listened to over 60 audio-books in the last couple years and this was the worst narration I've ever heard.

God awful. Don’t waste your money.
Too bad I am unable to give this a lower review. This was so poorly written that it was absolutely unlistenable. It’s still remains in my library can anyone tell me how to remove it?

You must be kidding.............
Would you try another book from Cliff Ball and/or Keith Slane?
Cliff Ball, Not without checking the reviews. Keith Slane no!
What could Cliff Ball have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Ask a real publisher..... because the one for this book FAILED!
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Not sure... the material was poor and the narration seemed to be flat......
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
In the realm of what ifs, a possible good story with the right author.
Any additional comments?
Does Audible have standards? If so then the Q/A department really missed on this one!
