Summary

What would you do if you could go back in time and change your life? Which regrets and mistakes would you fix? What would your life look like now?

In Future Proof, an experimental medical treatment goes wrong, which allows Sam Harris to do exactly that. He starts by standing up to the kids who bullied him at school and then sets about trying to fix the mess he made of the rest of his life. However, as he discovers, changing his past doesn’t always guarantee a brighter future.

Buckle up for a bumpy fun filled ride of what ifs and second chances. Winner of the Page Turner Awards 2022 Genre Award, Future Proof is a romantic comedy/drama filled with love, tears, and laughter with an accompanying original musical soundtrack.

Really good story spoilt by weird songs 

I really enjoyed the story and it was a different take on time travel and changing pasts. It is probably just me but the songs really irritated me and I couldn’t really see what purpose they served. Probably just a personal choice.

Good read

liked the story, and time-travel yarn. Bit strange with the music, additions, but I suppose it fitted well within the story.

An interesting take on time travel.

I have listened to many time travel books and this is one of the most enjoyable. The narrator is excellent - although I initially found it strange to have a female reader for a man's story.
The music added an additional element to this excellent story and I will give the songs a full listen on YouTube as suggested in the epilogue/notes.
I can only assume that the author was inspired (in part) by Quantum Leap as there are several instances where similarities occur - most noticeably the phrase 'to put right what once went wrong'.
Finally, I can't wait for the next book.

Engaging narrative

It was a great story and the songs were a nice touch which made the characters feel more 3 dimensional. I love time travel stories and the way this time travel occured was unusual which made it all the more interesting.
I generally prefer narrators of audio books to be the same gender as the main character/ narrator so I was a bit dubious at first but I got used to Alex and she performed well.

Fantastic Time Travel Yarn!

I have to admit being a little on the back foot when I first started to listen to this tale as the main protagonist is male, yet the narrator female. However this quickly dissipated as the hook of the story took hold! Alex was simply the perfect narrator for this tale… And what a tale! Really beautifully written, reminded me a little of Nicolas Sparks when he started to pull on my heart strings. Really well written, fantastic execution and ending - something hard to achieve for a time travel tale. Give it a go, you won’t be disappointed!

A good story and narration.

My first book from this author. I enjoyed the way he dealt with the time travel aspect. I look forward to David Atkinson's next book.

Lady narrator playing the lead role who is a man.

It was odd that the lead character is a bloke and the narrator is a woman, surely it would have made sense to have a male narrator. Apart from that the story is ok, certainly not great or involving. I wanted to hear the story out as I am stubborn, not because I felt I needed to know the outcome. This story is no "Do they know it’s Christmas yet" by James Crookes or "Time and Time Again" by Ben Elton which I feel are the best time travel novels you can read.
