Okay, maybe Jana Oliver was taking her time, or maybe she was just being thorough—either way, I really liked *Virtual Evil (Time Rovers, #2)*. The world-building is excellent, it puts a fresh spin on familiar tropes, and the writing style is clear and engaging. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the *Time Rovers* series as a whole. Definitely worth a read! 🌹 If you're looking for a great YA paranormal fantasy book review, look no further.

When troubled, TEM, as he was known, would meditate on a painting of black holes and red dwarf stars, a rare Perkins original. This time it was the M.C. Escher, the one with reptiles trudging into a puzzle and out again in an endless circle. Ralph turned back to his chronsole. If Morrisey was boring holes into the Escher, things were going south in a hurry. Going south indeed, as the plot becomes more and more convoluted. “Middle book syndrome” comes to mind, but I’m not sure I’d go as far as t...

Jacynda Lassiter's time-traveling escapades continue in 1888, but this time, she's under orders to find the greatest Time Rover of them all and yank him back to 2057 against his will.

If she doesn't, she's looking at a decade behind bars.Meanwhile, Jonathon Keats is still hot on the trail of an Irish anarchist and some missing explosives.

In *Virtual Evil (Time Rovers, #2)*, the story picks up a few weeks after the end of the first book. Jack the Ripper is still at large but has stopped killing for now. The anarchists' plot was interrupted, but their threat is more real than ever and not as simple as it seems. John Keats is badly injured and now an anarchist target. Alastair is grumpy, over-protective, and having career troubles, and Cynda is still at the heart of dangerous events, unable to return to her time before the mess of ...

Series Info/Source: This is the second book in the Time Rovers series. I bought a copy of this as an ebook for my Kindle. Thoughts: This book picks up right where the first one left off. Jacynda's in hot water for some of her actions in book 1 and ends up getting pulled in as a major player in some politics going on in 2057. She gets sent back to London in 1888 on a mission to find the famous Harter Defoe. She needs to return him to the future or face prison time. However, things are seriously ...

I really enjoyed "Virtual Evil" and loved the revelation about Defoe's true identity! The plot is definitely getting more complex, with 1888 not unfolding as it should, and TPB and Guv at war, leaving the Rovers caught in the crossfire. This is a great read for fans of time travel books and Jana Oliver's work.I still adore Alistair and Keats! We discover that Keats' timeline isn't progressing correctly, nor is that of the murdered women featured in "Virtual Evil". It wasn't mentioned whether Ala...

While I thought *Virtual Evil* didn't quite live up to *Sojourn*, and while I found that it began rather slowly – it felt like a mid-book lull, paving the way before things explode – it slowly got its hooks into me and then got thoroughly under my skin. A tense, entertaining, enjoyable read. In many ways, I felt *Virtual Evil* was too obviously Book #2. It picked up from the events of *Sojourn* with the sense that the reader should remember everything that happened in the first book. While I do...
