Publisher's summary

Lost in time, the town of Black Creek, Kentucky becomes home to temporal layers of people, creatures, and monsters from disparate eras. Journey beyond the time of humanity and witness the rewriting of mankind’s genesis.

For Owen McCoy, a typical day on the job as head of security for Synergy, a research company conducting mysterious experiments, is boring at best. And that’s the way he likes it. Patrolling the Appalachian mountainside, where his now deceased father taught him how to hunt, is relaxing and connects him to the past.

But today is not a typical day on the job. It begins with asking a thief to join him for breakfast. Seeking to set the young man on a better path, Owen invites him to walk the perimeter with him and consider a more honest living. Before their patrol can begin, they discover evidence that the facility has been breached. When Owen’s truck explodes, he’s confused, but ready for whatever might come his way.

At least, he thinks he is.

A wave of light-bending energy - the Flux - rolls down the mountainside, transporting Owen, and everyone in the nearby town of Black Creek, to October 14, 1985, the day before his father died. Two hours later, the second Flux hits, and then a third, and a fourth, each time collecting Black Creek residents from various times. They’re carried through eras filled with wild animals, monsters of myth, and ancient beasts...and then beyond.

Joined by a ragtag group of temporal stowaways, including family members, Owen fights to restore order, stop the Flux, and return home, facing off against futuristic tech, primal killers, and the fear of losing his father...again.

International bestselling author of The Others and Infinite, Jeremy Robinson combines science, action, and strong characters to create an ever-changing landscape that explores the past, the human condition, and the lengths people will go to save those they love.

The best from either contributor

I've heard a few books by author Jeremy Robinson and they've ranged from meh to excellent. Flux is at least as good if not better than anything which has come before. In fact, this is what should have been the final book in Peter Clines' Threshold series.

Flux is the 10th book I've heard narrated by Jeffrey Kafer. He tends to be the highlight in some otherwise forgettable heroes-that-call-themselves-villains books. I'm excited to see him shine here with some quality writing.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Fluxtastic!

Another home run for Mr. Robinson. I really enjoyed the story. The characters were masterfully done. Having people and animals from diff time periods was refreshing. I loved how the story blends in with his other books.

Fellow Kentuckian

The author's creativeness is what draws me into his narratives, and this doesn't disappoint in the least.
The setting and the time theme were factors for getting me into this. But those are only bonuses as to how much fun the story is, and not key factors as to why I like this novel.
Being from Kentucky, any stereotypes that appear are pretty much true and funny to laugh at.
Then there's the time travel, the pace is frantic as time travel would be.
Highly recommended for sci-fi thriller fans!

Wow

Fast pased, exciting non-stop action! This would make a blockbuster movie! Gods, demons, aliens, dinosaurs...great job!

A ton better then I thought

This is the first book I've listened to by Mr. Robinson and I have to admit I will be looking to purchase his other works as well.

I didnt have high hope's when i bought this book but have to admit the story / characters are well fleshed out and the story draws you in i would recommend you give it a try like i did. You wont regret your purchase.

The narration is spot on, but thank God he didnt narrate the characters with the proper regional accent, would have been god awful for me to understand what they would be saying.

Impressed.

This wouldn’t be my typical choice for a read but it was surprisingly different from other time travel stories. Instead of people sneaking around trying to avoid themselves in a different time period this book goes the reverse route and shows what happens when everything in the space time continuum goes to crap. When the timeline is completely destroyed beyond repair.

Fun times.

Don't get the Bad Reviews: it's pretty good

I honestly don't get the bad reviews on this book: it's pretty good. The book is more action/adventure/science fiction than time travel. The author put in a lot of time and effort on crafting this novel and the narrator did an awesome job. Recommend this book for hours of entertainment.

Big Surprise- Couldn’t stop listening

Twists and turns and surprises but still moving on the same direction backwards and then forwards. Wow! Thanks for the story. Won’t forget this one!

An enjoyable listen

I really enjoyed this audio book. I look forward to hearing more from this author. The narrator did a good job and it will be nice to hear more from him.

Amazing story and amazing performance

This was a great surprise from an author I had not listened to before. Full of action and suspense.
