A different take on time travel.

Overall it was ok. The world building was interesting and the characters are well thought out. The survival parts are pretty well thought out. Overall I give it a 3.5 out of 5 rounded up.

Highly recommend!This was REALLY well written, felt realistic and was super interesting. There were 3 (short) sexy scenes that I think could have been even more glossed over, but they were short enough and the main of the book is so well written that... While it kind of broke up the flow of the story, it's not with skipping the book for. Besides an engaging story and really great characters and an empowering woman, the other great thing about this book is that it so easily made me think "what if...

Survivalist StoryFantasy Alternate Earth adult situationsThere are only a handful of scenes with sex, and they are quite short. Both accept quite readily their old lives and their families are gone.So, the two humans end up in a parallel timeline. The fact of Jupiter being a star lends strength to this to being an alternate reality. So, an alternate reality, in Earth's far distant future.The fact that both are younger and in perfect health hints there may have been an intelligence behind their t...

A unique story

I was hoping for book 2 because the introduction shows a “book 1” Darn Darn Darn! This book is teeming with perfect plot and dialogue . Spot is now a favorite character of mine. Not enough time for an extended review, but I highly recommend this entertaining and clever book on time travel! (Or an alternate universe)

Great read

This was a surprising time travel story with a different and enjoyable twist. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone who enjoys time travel adventures.

This was an unexpected pleasure in all ways. Very believable, detailed, and exciting survival scenarios, great chemistry between the main characters, and absolutely dangerous while alternately hilarious representation of an alternate sentient species which I won't say what it is to spoil the surprise. But the interactions and thoughts of the leader with the rest of the group and its reactions are priceless. It's a back in time adventure with many tweaks on traditional story lines, making it fami...

Really hope there is a sequel

Loved this book! I know the author said he doesn't write sequels, but I'm hoping he'll make an exception for this one! Indeed to know what happens when George gets older, is that the end of humanity? And can John find some wolf puppies to raise? Great few and well worth the time and money spent!

A great survival story, powerfully written

I like how these two very ordinary office workers are suddenly thrust into a very extraordinary situation. The quality of writing is second to none. It really feels like being there. Beautiful nature. Great action scenes. And a slowly growing love between John and Liz.

What's not to like?

Loved it

Great reading. Couldn't put it down. Looking forward to the next book. Hoping it'll be just as exciting as this pne
