Narrative Toward Books A Long Time Until Now (Temporal Displacement #1)

Book 1 in a new series from the creator of the best-selling Freehold Universe series. A military unit is thrust back into Paleolithic times with only their guns and portable hardware.

Ten soldiers on convoy in Afghanistan suddenly find themselves lost in time. Somehow, they arrived in Earth's Paleolithic Asia. With no idea how they arrived or how to get back, the shock of the event is severe. They discover groups of the similarly displaced: Imperial Romans, Neolithic Europeans, and a small cadre of East Indian peasants. Despite their technological advantage, the soldiers only have ten people, and know no way home. Then two more time travelers arrive from a future far beyond the present. These time travelers may have the means to get back, but they aren't giving it up. In fact, they may have a treacherous agenda of their own, one that may very well lead to the death of the displaced in a harsh and dangerous era.

Criticize About Books A Long Time Until Now (Temporal Displacement #1)

Looking forward to book 2I read a review where the reader stopped reading because one of two females was thinking of suicide, do to a fear of rape and or gang rape, by the males she was trapped in the distant past with.I wish that person had kept reading as this was an interesting read. Personally if I was a female trapped in the past with 8 males I think that I too would spend some time worrying about rape as well. The fact that the author thought of this and included it in the story just made

When I heard Michael Z Williamson was writing a time travel novel, I began to drool in anticipation. I love the entire time travel sub-genre, especially jaunts into the past. (Just to be aboveboard with y'all, yes, I have met Michael Williamson, I'm Facebook Friends with him, and I like him personally. Doesn't mean I wouldn't savage him for a lame book.) As you can see from the full load of stars, I was not disappointed in this one. Let me tell you why. As the architects say, the form fits the

Gutted it out all the way to page 77, at which point a female character decides that since she's likely to be gang raped and sexually enslaved, she should just kill herself now to spare the men in the group all the trouble of having to defend her. Book met wall at high speed, and Williamson earned a new spot next to John Ringo on the shelf of Authors Whose Distasteful Portrayal of Female Characters Really Irks Me.

I enjoyed the book. Reminds me of the Destroyer men Series in some ways. The military lingo is heavy in the book. Impromptu use of the cell phones with only a adhoc laptop network was kinda annoying and so was how easy they "cracked" laptop software. The climate and time periods are pretty much correct for the settings. Descriptions of the flora and fauna of the time period is also pretty good. Author did put some research into this book and wasn't pure fantasy which was good. Some character

I had a bit of a difficult time at first, keeping up with the characters. After I got them straight in my mind, the story was fantastic! Great humor, excellent character development and just a darn good story!

Boring, characters have no personality and although the premise was very interesting the plot and story were flat. The characters could of been lost on a deserted island for all it was worth and had the same story line. Felt too much like an alpha survivalist ex military, chest thumping, macho ideal. I The writing was just flat and both the characters and and storyline need development.

Way better than you think it will be. There are plenty of "fish out of water" and "lost in time" stories out there. None have the kind of detail this one does. The distant past is as alien as any bug-eyed monster. If you're thinking, "ah, another time travel story," and you're about to scroll past this, think again. You need to read this book.
