De: Andrew Hastie

Narrado por: Rupert Degas

Traveling into the past using the timelines of ancient artefacts, the Oblivion Order explore the forgotten centuries, ones that never made it into the history books. Weaving back through time, the secret society of eccentric anachronists ensures the best possible future for humanity, making subtle adjustments to the past—saving us from oblivion. Every alteration is carefully calculated, and nothing is left to chance. Until the day Joshua Jones, a teenage thief, breaks into one of their station houses and finds himself transported back to 1944—where he accidentally changes the outcome of WW2. Josh is inadvertently pulled into their secret world of alternate realities, temporal guilds and chaos demons. With the help of Caitlin, a beautiful librarian, he learns to harness his abilities as she shows him a future he never dreamed he could have. But beyond the temporal borders, an ancient evil is gathering, threatening to devour every moment that ever was. Will Josh fulfil his destiny? Will he come to terms with his past? A fast-paced time travel adventure, Anachronist will take you on a journey into a world not bound by the rules of time, exploring history and the consequences of changing it.

If you like

history, science, archaeology, anthropology, art, time travel, character development, and top shelf narration, this is it. There is nothing, nothing, bad about this book…what are you waiting for!

Great start to a new time travel world

Thoroughly enjoyed everything about the book. Narration and pacing are great and solid world building.

Very Entertaining

This is definitely a page turner. I have read many time travel novels, but none like this. I enjoyed the story and the performance. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because there were some incorrect scientific statements (Very simple; not quantum mechanics) and a few places where the incorrect vocabulary was used. The performance is wonderful except in a couple of places where the narrator got his character voices mixed. Most people wouldn't even notice these minor errors.

Pleasantly Surprising

The book was a slow start, but after it got rolling, has been one of the most intriguing I’ve ever read/listened to.

Great concept and thrilling story.

If you like time travel stories - and enjoy intelligent writing and a massive story arc - then this is for you!
I loved it and can’t wait to delve into the next book to see what fate has in store for our heroes next! 10/10!!

Well thought out and meaty!

An entertaining Time Travel Fantasy worth the read. Strikes good balance; Gritty enough to hold the more mature reader... some nifty handling of Time Mechanics that are relatively fresh... Enough gears and gadgets for a steampunk enthusiast... Enough modernity to call it Urban Fantasy,.. Enough romance without being laden with excessive Teen Angst... Enough unsolved mystery in the story and mechanics to properly justify a series going forward. Excellent and talented Narration by Rupert Degas.

Riveting story

I only heard about this book 2 days ago and I'm already hooked to the series. It's not an entirely original idea, but the story telling was so good, I had to keep listening to hear what would happen next. I also loved the reader and, of course, his ability to voice the various characters was top notch. I'll definitely be back for the rest of the series.

Marvelous Time Tale

This is exactly what I was looking for in a time adventure! Just the right amount of drama, intrigue, and peppered with history and interesting approaches to the time continuum. The V.O. is outstanding! Loved this one, and I’d bought the next before it finished.

Great story and great narration!

I loved this book! Will definitely listen to the whole series! The narration was superb! Each character had their own voice and there was no confusion as to who was talking. One of the characters, a mentor to the protagonist, sounded just like Sean Connery! I hope Mr. Degas will narrate all of Mr. Hastie's books! The story line is great and we're left with a cliffhanger at the end. So, having just finished this book, I'm off to download the 2nd in the series.

Interesting!!!!

I’m not sure what I expected But this was AWESOME!!!! This would make a great movie! Thank you for so much fun!!!
