About this listen

History always repeats ... or does it?

When a man who died eighteen years ago mysteriously appears on his doorstep, Jason knows his past has finally caught up with him.

Forty years have elapsed since Jason Apsley grabbed his second chance when time-travelling back to 1976. Apart from those time-travelling calamitous events of a few decades ago, his second life has been pretty good ... until now.

As the chaos ensues, Jason’s daughter, Beth, and the previous dead man face a dilemma. A time-travelling conundrum involving that nefarious Colney family. Once again, history is crying out to be changed ... lives depend upon it.

If they fail ... they’ll be history.

Will time repeat itself, or can Beth, like her father has many times, alter the future?

Relive the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s in this witty and gripping time-travel series. If you like time travel, entwined with mystery, humour, and a dash of romance, you’ll love this fast-paced series by Adrian Cousins.

book 5

Book 5 of what i hope will be more, the plot develops well and characters are more fleshed out as the series progresses. l think it is another 5 star book well read and a great story line.

More Apsley Universe Please

A great listen and again outstanding performances by Perdita Lawton and Lee Beddow. I didn't think the story was the strongest in the series, but more than enough to keep me entertained and wanting more. Beth's time travel recap was so sunny and Martin, well Martin was just being Martin/Leonardo/Tyler or whatever he goes by, he had me laughing from the outset.

Great stuff all in all.

What a family!

Whilst I try and wait patiently for the next instalment about the remarkably unlucky Apsley family I have to urge you to buy what's available so far. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a set of audiobooks quite so much. Cracking!

Okay, but not the best out the series.

I do love the previous books, but this one I found pretty hard going. The narration this time, wasn't the best, the long drawn out, (Beth) conversions were also tough to absorb and listen to.

Best one so far

This book was well worth waiting for.

We learned so much about Beth’s character and how Gobby she was and just wouldn’t stop yakking!

The story followed on well from the other books in the series but could have been taken as a one off such was the great level of explanation given but it wasn’t over long for those of us who have enjoyed the previous books.

It was nice to see a small tie in with one of the author’s other book series. Hopefully everyone spotted that.

All I can say is thank you Adrian, Perdita and Lee for another brilliantly written and wonderfully acted audiobook.

Can’t wait for the next one!

Lacking from the previous novels

Great presentation but somewhat lacking in the storyline department unfortunately as I loved the previous titles.
