Resumen del Editor
A plot against England that even the genius of H. G. Wells could not have imagined.
It’s 1914. The Great War grips the world - and from the Western Front a strange story emerges...a story of St. George and a brigade of angels descending from heaven to fight beside the beleaguered British troops. But can there be any truth to it?
H. G. Wells, the most celebrated writer of his day - author of The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Invisible Man - is dispatched to find out. There, he finds an eerie wasteland inhabited by the living, the dead, and those forever stranded somewhere in between...a no-man’s-land whose unhappy souls trail him home to London, where a deadly plot, one that could turn the tide of war, is rapidly unfolding.
In league with his young love, the reporter and suffragette Rebecca West, Wells must do battle with diabolical forces - secret agents and depraved occultists - to save his sanity, his country, and ultimately the world.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Narrator Steve West superbly delivers Masello's latest historical imaginings. …West believably creates everyone from foot soldiers to Winston Churchill, from Satan worshipper Alistair Crowley to diabolical German spies, as well as anti-German locals; Wells's adoring wife, Jane; and his suffragette mistress, Rebecca West. With ghosts to lead the way, Wells and West attempt to foil a plot by occultists to destroy British lives and morale. Fascinating listening.” –Audiofile Magazine
“His blending of real and fictional events is utterly captivating. And casting the 49-year-old Wells as an action hero makes for great fun.” —Booklist

Historia
From the best-selling author of the Sandman Slim series, a lush, dark, stand-alone fantasy built off the insurgent tradition of China Mieville and M. John Harrison - a subversive tale that immerses us in a world where the extremes of bleakness and beauty exist together in dangerous harmony in a city on the edge of civility and chaos. The Great War is over. The city of Lower Proszawa celebrates the peace with a decadence and carefree spirit as intense as the war’s horrifying despair.

London, June 1860: When an assassination attempt is made on Queen Victoria, and a petty thief is gruesomely murdered moments later - and only a block away - Chief Detective Inspector Charles Field quickly surmises that these crimes are connected to an even more sinister plot. Was Victoria really the assassin's target? Are those closest to the Crown hiding something? Soon, Field's investigation exposes a shocking conspiracy in which the publication of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species sets off a string of murders, arson, kidnapping, and the pursuit of a diabolical madman.

As war rages in 1944, young army lieutenant Lucas Athan recovers a sarcophagus excavated from an Egyptian tomb. Shipped to Princeton University for study, the box contains mysteries that only Lucas, aided by brilliant archaeologist Simone Rashid, can unlock. These mysteries may, in fact, defy - or fulfill - the dire prophecies of Albert Einstein himself.

Historia
In the caves beneath an Italian lake, the fossil of a creature older than the Earth has been disinterred. In the Judaean desert, a legendary parchment has been discovered. One reveals the secrets of heaven. One foretells an impending hell. And deciphering their message has been left to paleontologist Carter Cox - a man of science whose faith in the empirical is about to be shaken by forces of evil beyond imagining.

Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He's a normal Italian teenager - obsessed with music, food, and girls - but his days of innocence are numbered. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior. In an attempt to protect him, Pino's parents force him to enlist as a German soldier - a move they think will keep him out of combat.

Great book
Personally hard for me to get over the overt infidelity of the protagonist, but great job by Masello and West here.

Best narration
Loved this story! Didn’t want to stop listening and finished it in 2 days. It’s read by my favorite narrator Steve West which made the book even better!

Well done supernatural historical fiction
Series Info/Source: This is a stand alone book. I borrowed this book for free through Kindle Unlimited.
Audiobook Quality (5/5): I listened to this on audiobook and the narration was fantastic. I would highly recommend listening to this one on audiobook if you enjoy audiobooks; West did an absolutely amazing job reading this.
Thoughts: I definitely enjoyed this. This is set mostly in WWI and involves HG Wells and a young female reporter (Rebecca West) unraveling a dastardly plot of bacterial warfare.
I really enjoyed the historical setting, the historical cast, and the slight supernatural elements (ghosts, potential cults, etc). The descriptions were fantastic and really made the settings come alive. I especially enjoyed the time spent in the trenches and underground with the ghouls; it was just very fascinating (and horrifying) to read about.
My Summary (4/5): Overall this was a great mystery, war story, and political thriller with some fascinating historical characters and an amazing setting. I enjoyed it and plan on checking out Masello's future books.

Great narration...not great story
Well...I’m not really a fan of this story. It doesn’t make much sense and it is corny. The narrator did a great job with his characters and his voice is clear and calming. If you want a story that doesn’t require a bunch of thought...this would be a good one.

I liked it!
Don't expect a life altering experience, but it is an entertaining 12 hours+ listen. A solid narrated story about WWI, H.G. Wells, a few ghosts from the trenches, Winston Churchill and zeppeliner attacks. I will be checking out some of the authors earlier books because I liked this one.

Not a bad book, it just can't decide what it is.
It starts out as a somewhat historical (fictional) novel that brings in supernatural elements to help (deus ex machina) the characters solve a mystery, and adds a dash of supermarket romance-novel (traditional houswife-porn) thrown in for good measure... I got through it, but I wasn't very impressed.

Exceptional quality and historical reference
The title is good but you can't buy into it until a little way into the book. this a world wise citizen and a loyal government and an inquisitive young woman and loyal and wise woman and the trenches of world war I and brave and resolute loyal young men dying with a wish for one last kiss or a another summer of being 15. World War I as you've never thought of it before. And how close imagination and a heart can come to reality.
