About this listen
It’s the 1st of June 1914 and Hugh Stanton, ex-soldier and celebrated adventurer is quite literally the loneliest man on earth. No one he has ever known or loved has been born yet. Perhaps now they never will be.
Stanton knows that a great and terrible war is coming. A collective suicidal madness that will destroy European civilization and bring misery to millions in the century to come. He knows this because, for him, that century is already history.
Somehow he must change that history. He must prevent the war. A war that will begin with a single bullet. But can a single bullet truly corrupt an entire century?
And, if so, could another single bullet save it?

Great, terrific....until a truly terrible ending
I really enjoyed this interesting book although I became very sick and tired of the "hero" having long repetitive thoughts about the result of his actions over and over and over again. A good edit might have helped. But the overall concept was interesting and the history fascinating. The twist towards the end was particularly interesting and I was agog to see where Elton would take it. I have to say it ended as a total cop out for me - like he couldn't figure out how to stop so just did. So only three stars and in fact I almost gave it two as I feel quite cheated by Mr Elton. Shame.

Well crafted. Totally enjoyable
More excellent writing from Ben Elton. A very clever and complex central theme, spun into a believable sequence of alternatives which become reality as a result of designed changes to key events in world history. But more than just a litany of imaginings of possible other realities. Ben also warns 'to be careful of what you wish for' and 'that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions' with some unexpected twists thrown in for good measure. Loved it.

An Excellent story that is suitable for any age group.
I thought the story was going to end on at least three separate occasions, ironically it didn't and to my delight the story continued for quite some time after each of these occasions.t
As I was not working the following day I listened to the whole story in a single sessions which I feel enhanced the experience.

Time & Time Again
I thought this book deserved a far better ending. I thoroughly enjoyed it until the ending spoilt it for me. Strong characters, good storyline and well read by Jot Davies. I fell in love with Bernie.
It would’ve been straight 5 stars but for the weak rushed ending so 4 stars cos I really did enjoy it up until then.
