Loved it

*I received a copy of this audiobook from the author for the purpose of an honest review*

As with the whole series so far, I loved this audio book.

This book in the After Cilmeri series is Meg and Anna's story after they are swept away in the stream of time, separated from David and Llewellyn and their families in Wales. Along the way they are reunited with Callum and Casie, on the run from the "bad guys" while David & Dad have trouble from bad guys of their own.

Laurel Schroeder's narration is excellent. I adore her ability to get the character voices just right for each one, and to keep them consistent from volume to volume. I could -and do- listen to her read for hours. Haha. I think she is perfect for this series.

The story is one that lends itself to the audio experience, alternating points of view are used sharing the telling between characters and each book sets up the unique angle presented, leading into a widening and deepening storyline. These are not just episodes of the same theme over and over. Read or listen, print or audio, or both. I just love this series.

Love this time travel historical novel!

If you could sum up Ashes of Time in three words, what would they be?

Wicked good read!

What other book might you compare Ashes of Time to and why?

It's like others in the series - other books don't compare!

Which character – as performed by Laurel Schroeder – was your favorite?

Oooh, this is hard. David probably.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Back to the Future Meets the Princess Bride- lol

Any additional comments?

Obsessed by the series. Loved reading the books. But the audible version - wow!

An interesting series

It continues to bring in unexpected plot diversions that keeps the reader's interest high with changes in location and year generated by time travel.

unexpected
