TIME TRAVEL THRILLER

Time isn't what we think it is...

Most scientists think of time as a mathematical tool to chronicle events from past to future. Others view it as an integral component of the fourth dimension.

But physicist Lucas Ramsay thinks they’re all wrong. Dead wrong.

Time is something else altogether. He believes time is a living, sentient entity that seeks out to torment, then destroy anyone who dares to look at it. To control it, like himself.

His theories have been called complete fantasy. Some consider Lucas insane and a threat. A few want him dead, or at least held accountable for the failed experiment that caused the death of millions.

But what none of them know is that Lucas’ life is the temporal anchor point that keeps the multiverse from unraveling.

Every decision Lucas has made leads him to a singular moment. The moment when he puts on the Smart Skin Suit and steps into the Incursion Chamber to travel back in time and fix the timeline.

And fix himself, too.

Reviews

[Diana · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is tough to give a review for this book without revealing any spoilers.

I read the first book, Linkage, and if you haven’t you should as it really sets the stage nicely for this book.

Lucas shows us a different side of himself in this book and the book opens with a roar that is Lucas unleashed.

While Linkage gave us insight on Lucas and his relationship with his brother, Incursion showed us what one is capable of when pushed to his limit. Incursion was faster paced but I do think we needed the pace of the story in Linkage to get us to Incursion.

I liked the mention of the Akashic Field and also of Nikola Tesla. Seeing mention of Project Stargate smoothly worked into the story made me smile as the author has his finger on the pulse of what to add to give this story the extra layers that I enjoyed so much in Linkage.

I also liked the twists to what you thought was a given- only to find out the story takes a little jog to the left (or right). Without giving details, there is a part when Lucas is checking bodies and the great attention to detail that the author has shown in both books is apparent. We also see another example of that “jog in the road” that takes the story up a notch as it is unexpected.

While Jay J. Falconer proved his writing abilities in the first book, he really knocked the ball out of the park with Incursion.
This was a story that didn’t have any lulls. While part of me wished Reversion was available now, having a little break is okay too. I definitely will be reading the third book in this series as soon as it is available.

This is a high caliber read – I definitely recommend it.

This book gives more insight into the main characters and introduces new minor one. The alien plot becomes more obvious and the book focuses more on the 'adventures' of the characters. This book has faster pace than the first book which is fine because I was familiar with the characters. This author has a lot of imagination as is able to put pen to paper and write an excellent story. To me, the book is written for those that have some sci-fi reading background, but as long as people are aware that this is a series, then even those with no sci-fi background will enjoy these books. I eagerly anticipate the third book in the series.

This book shows us a different Lucas..... one that has been through hell.... he is not the same Lucas we met at the beginning of book one. This Lucas has not only been through his brother going missing, but also a bloody, violent war that took his mother and a ton of others and now he has a 'traveler' speaking in riddles in his head.

In the beginning we see him doing whatever he can to find his brother.... he is doing things that made me cringe and think about how much all that had happened to him changed him.

This book is a lot more fast paced then the last book.... I LOVED the actions scenes .... and that is almost this whole book.... it is filled with one adventure after another as Lucas searches for answers that will help him find his brother... or more Bio Tex so he can make himself some help to find his brother :)

I really really am enjoying these books and I can't wait until the next one comes out. This is not the typical science fiction that I like to read, this is really really unique.... the creativeness of this author just makes me want to find him and take him out for coffee and listen to him talk lol.

I love the characters, especially Lucas and I can't wait to read the rest of the story! The Narrows of Time should be a movie.... I can SO see some of these epic action scenes on the big screen!!!!!

I would recommend this book to any lovers of science fiction... especially if you are like me and you feel like the science fiction novels recently written have been coming out of a cookie cutter. Linkage and Incursion break the mold... very unique and fun reading. I can't wait for Book 3!!!

Reading this book now and it is better than the first in the trilogy. The action is wonderful so far and will continue to read books by this author.

[Silver Mintah · Rating 3 out of 5]

So this is the second book in the Narrows of Time series. In it, Lucas is in search of his missing brother Drew, who was taken through a time portal by vicious aliens. Lucas feels guilty because Drew is his younger foster brother and Lucas promised to protect him. Lucas is a scientist and is very smart but Drew is a genius. He is aided by a military man named Rico who is teaching Lucas the ropes on how to be a macho man and a badass.

A curious dichotomy exists here. It is like two different people are writing the books. The first is someone who has background in quantum physics. The second one is a 14 year-old boy. The lowbrow, casual speech is in contrast with the main character's supposed genius intellect. Also, the way women are portrayed in the book borders on cringy. Although I feel the author made a concerted effort to not be cringy towards the end of the book.

This book, unlike the first, has many spelling errors. They REALLY stand out in a book that is supposed to be pseudo-science fiction. For example, "why waist time," and "you're just a bunch bunch," instead of 'bunch of." I hope the third book had a more capable proofreader.

However, I still liked the book. It's a good story, and I really don't care for authors who bend over backwards to be politically correct and woke. This is a man's book, written for that man who likes Star Trek science and also ogles the women in those short space-issue dresses.

This was a great follow up to Linkage. With all the required plot setups taken care of in the first book we really get to a fast paced and thrilling plot line in this book. There are plenty of twist and turns to keep it exciting and you really cannot guess what is going to happen next.

The author delves deeper into the characters are really creates some meaningful characters that we begin to really feel for as the story progresses.

Overall I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait for the conclusion to this series, i have to know how it ends!

Gripping

A must read book. Kept me up reading it. I've thoroughly enjoyed these two books, and the twists and turns in them

[John · Rating 4 out of 5]

Much darker Lucas Ramsey. Very exciting story line. Will definitely read Reversion when it is finished.
