The Passage

Wonderland Series, Book 1

By: Irina Shapiro

Narrated by: Eva Kaminsky

In the spring of 1685, Lord Hugo Everly, ardent supporter of the Protestant upstart the Duke of Monmouth, vanishes without a trace just before the Monmouth Rebellion, leaving future generations forever baffled as to what might have become of him.

In 2013, while visiting Everly Manor as part of her job as a location scout for a film production company, Neve Ashley stumbles onto a secret passage that leads her into the 17th century and straight into the path of the ill-fated lord. Neve is able to return safely to her own time, but she can't forget the man she met or the fate that's about to befall him. Against her better judgment, Neve decides to go back and warn Hugo of impending danger, not realizing that she's walking into danger herself, for history is never straightforward, and people's motives not always what they appear to be. Taken hostage by the very man she was trying to save, Neve is trapped in the 17th century, her fate now intertwined with that of her captor, and the future something that neither one of them could have envisioned.

Great story and characters

I don’t usually listen to time travel books unless there is a new angle and this one was great. Well fleshed out characters and a great narrator made it extra good

Interesting

Good story with history and intrigue. I love time travel and historical events. This was both in one book!

Great story

It's a good book. Definitely recommend. Can't wait to read the next. Narrator read good, story was intriguing enough to keep me interested the whole time.

Love at first chapter!

I fell in love with this book instantly. There are multiple novels out there about time travel and romance, but this one does stand apart. The authoress writes believable and relatable characters that you can't help but want to follow.

The narrator does a great job of portraying the characters and has a very pleasant voice.

If you are a fan of Outlander, this is a great read. I can't wait to listen to the next ones!

One of my Fave Time Travel

I loved this story. I loved the whole series. Different than other time travels. Was it perfect? No. A few things in series frustrated me and i wish would have been written a little differently but that’s usually in any book.... listened to the series straight through. Not giving any info, just jump in and enjoy.

Wow, this was deep

I love it in audible because it's hard for me to see the words in the kindle books lately. The characters were well rounded, the plots complex, but so much that I couldn't keep up. Another night or two not sleeping so I won't miss a single word and voila, it is another favorite series. On to the second now. Great job author and thank you audiible for putting these books out for me.

So invested!

I was invested in this story and these characters before the first chapter's end. I initially chose the series because it was included with my Audible subscription, but I would've gladly spent the credits to spend time with Neve, Hugo, Max and the crew. I tend to like Regency and Victorian settings, but I now know much more about life during The Glorious Revolution. The narrator is outstanding, bringing each individual to life.

very quick ending

I hope hoping for more as to what happened with Hugo & Max. So many unanswered questions.

Passage

Enjoyed the stories but I hated the decisions some of the characters made. Without giving anything away if you did go back would you change things knowing the outcome ?

Riveting

The story is intriguing and keeps your interest. The narration is extremely well done. I can't wait to read the next book!
