Summary

Book one 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 10 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.

Long but very enjoyable

I really enjoyed this so much that despite its length I listened to it twice. good characters and an unfolding story kept it from getting boring and the narration was excellent. I just might listen to it a third time.

Not bad

Liked this book although the ending was a bit weak , lots of background to how set up a camp but could have done with more action

weak

Any additional comments?

Weak survival story, very American, lost count of the hoo ahs which were irritating and unnecessary. All revolves around the American party, enough said! do i have to say more, no you get my drift...............ITS NOT WORTH BOTHERING WITH.

fascinating sci-fi "procedural"

not an action story but really in depth storyline which made it a lot like an anthropological novel than a sci-fi adventure. I enjoyed the depth and breadth of the story, also the length was fine with me. The ending was very appropriate for the overall tone but didn't make me feel it was over.

Past, Present and future

Took a while to get into the audio book and was irritated by the American whoya sounds, but it became interesting then seemed to run out of steam as they went to the future, an ok listen once only.

Good time travel book

Would you consider the audio edition of A Long Time Until Now to be better than the print version?

Liked the story with good plot line the only disappointing part was the rushed ending, the way the story developed kept me interested and the way the struggles of the time travelers where overcome seamed to be well thought out.
