About this listen

Wilson Dowling is sent from the future to the present day to rectify the Schumann Frequency which has the power to slow the speed of time. Clues buried deep within the Dead Sea Scrolls have made this Dowling's mission - he must open three energy portals hidden within the most famous archaeological sites on Earth. Wilson has to move quickly as forces of opposition mount against him, forces which threaten to unravel his mission and decide the fate of the entire planet.

An adventure not only through time and humanity, The Schumann Frequency races through various corners of the globe from the Mayan ruins in Mexico, to the Giza Pyramids in Egypt and finally Stonehenge for the book's thrilling climax. Christopher Ride takes you on a gripping journey that will keep you riveted.

Editorial reviews

"Race against time" takes on a new meaning in this debut thriller from Christopher Ride. Time is unraveling, moving faster and faster, and a traveler from the future is sent to the present to fix it. Helena, a woman from the present day finds she has a psychic connection to this traveler, entangling her in the ensuing adventure with stops at some of the world's most interesting archaeological sites and the secrets they contain. With a sound basis in theoretical physics, natural phenomena, and the ancient world this audiobook will please fans of sci-fi, historical mystery, and action. Musician and voice actor Sean Mangan's deep-voiced lyrical performance is pensive, relishing the descriptive style and explanatory asides.

Just so-so

There is a somewhat interesting story in here, but it is heavily obscured by the inept character development. I don't know whether it was the fault of the author or the narrator, but the characters were overly stereo-typed and the dialogue ridiculous. I found this so annoying that I just wanted to get to the end. Too bad - it had potential.

Great

I like: action, adventure, intrigue and twists and if I am lucky with a book it gives a little education. I got all this. It is really cool and fun.

Great time travel book!

I'm a regular audiobook listener who has read several time travel novels. This is one of the best of them. I have only gave 1 other 5 star rating. What makes this book worth a credit is that every part is interesting, starting from the very beginning; the characters are interesting with good backgrounds; good research that you can actually follow online as you listen; ancient locations that invoke mystery; good plot that keeps you guessing and really good narration (which can destroy a good book). Other than some mispronunciations it was very good. I would also recommend Lightning by Dean Koontz.

Action, Adventure & race to save the world

Its a Matthew Riley, cross with Indiana Jones, cross with Dan Brown and even though i haven't quite finished it i'm already looking for another book by this great author... stick with it through the changing time zones because written any other way i think it would be a little boring up front but then too packed with action at the end - instead this is a great story, great character development and always enjoyable as you are taken on a great journey!

For me it's a page turner

Could hardly stop reading. Good plot, lots of suspense many unexpected twists, sometimes funny.
Ride makes a good connection between quantum physics, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the pyramids and Stonehenge. People who liked reading Steve Berry, Kate Mosse and Lincoln Child, will enjoy this book. It's no waste of money.

The Schuman Frequency

The two part story was action packed. It left me wanting more. If there's a sequal I want it.

Finally!......

I have been waiting to give a book a 5 star. This book hit all my buttons... it kept me on the treadmill for hours, so a bonus weight loss to go on top of a good adventure. Looking forward to then next one.
