Summary
The Immortality Blues opens on New Earth where we find Vito Martino, immortal after his life was saved by the super being Defender-11.
But pondering living on while his friends and family members age and die has put him in a funk.
So, Defender-11attempts to cheer him up by sending Vito on multiple missions, back in time on Earth where he will witness history and attempt to undo some of the wrongs the evil one, Defender-4, had done in the past.
Vito meets famous people and others, influencing history in subtle and surprising ways. Founding fathers? Check. Jesus Christ? Of course. Inimitably, Vito's interactions with benevolent and malevolent beings combine humor, savvy, and action.
Upnick connects these adventures with episodes from the five previous books in the Time Will Tell series.
Through time and space, friendships endure through danger and joy. Upnick's memorable characters make The Immortality Blues a gripping continuation of his epic series.

great narration
There is action from the beginning, I enjoyed the first half of this book and thought this might have become my favourite in the series so far, but then I slowly went off it and felt it lost its momentum a bit, for me.
The narrator for The Immortality Blues is my favourite for the series so far, I enjoyed listening to the narration of this.
I listened to this at speed 1.8x.
I was given this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Ma'am, I didn't never wear a dress before.
Vito and his dog, Chocolate Thunder, are immortal, made so by a being known as Defender 11. But watching those he knew grow old whilst he stays ever youthful has made his sad. So Defender 11 suggests a project: returning in time to resolve difficulties created by the evil Defender 4. Different places, different people, different races, different quests. All told in the present tense.
Quite snappy sentences, sardonic throwaways, much of it in conversation, all of it pretty silly (like asking Jesus how he kept so fit). Very much a cartoon in words. Narration by Henry Schrader is very good, with multiple different voices for the numerous assorted characters. Well read, also, with good intonation and even emotion in as far as it was pkssible. Quite superb.
Well, it was different, Very silly and fun, but not really for me. My tbanks, however, to the rights holder of The Immortality Blues, who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy, via Audiobook Boom.
