Slip Back

Push Forward

By: B. Brilliant

Narrated by: B. Brilliant

Ava Ellin didn’t mean to fracture time.

But when her strange gift begins to ripple across centuries—unraveling governments, altering revolutions, and drawing the attention of artificial consciousness—she becomes more than a traveler. She becomes the thread.

Mentored by Delphi, an exile from a secretive order called the Slippers, Ava slips through crumbling timelines and emotional archives. Her journey is not just across history, but through the resonance of empathy itself.

Slip Back: Push Forward blends science fiction, metaphysics, and emotional depth in a story that explores what happens when one woman’s compassion becomes the most powerful force in the multiverse.

For fans of Ursula K. Le Guin, Octavia Butler, and Ray Bradbury, this is a novel for those who still feel the hum.

When Science Fiction Becomes Science Soul: Prose T

by Dagmar W.

I had to listen more than once.

Not because it was unclear, but because certain lines landed sideways in my brain, like puzzle pieces from a different box. And then; half a chapter later, they’d snap into place. It wasn’t confusion. It was resonance catching up.

That’s what Slip Back – Push Forward did to me.

The narration is slow, deliberate, warm—like someone is handing you something fragile and real. I could feel the intention behind every pause, every sentence. It’s not rushed, and that’s the magic.

This isn’t your typical sci-fi. It’s quiet in all the right ways. It dares to be thoughtful, emotional, even spiritual—while still moving through timelines and strange machines. And the narrator’s voice? It made it feel like a memory you forgot you had.

By the end, I realized I’d been changed by it.

You don’t just listen to this. You sit with it. And then you listen again.

Full disclosure: I’m the author of this audiobook.

I know it’s unusual to leave a review of your own work, but I felt compelled to say a few words—not to sell, but to share.

Slip Back – Push Forward is a time-threaded story about resonance, compassion, and what it means to rewrite your place in the world. It’s a deeply personal book, rooted in real experiences and imagined futures, and recording the audio version brought a new layer of emotional clarity to the narrative.

If you’re into speculative fiction with heart, layered timelines, or characters who wrestle with both science and soul, I hope this might resonate with you. And if it doesn’t—that’s okay too.

If you give it a listen, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Reviews (good, bad, curious, or confused) help authors like me grow—and help others decide if it’s worth their time.

Thank you for considering it.
