The author does a really amazing job at making minor characters feel real Ben’s interaction with the grumpy foreman is fascinating. At this point I found myself already invested in Ben, because haven’t we all dealt with that suspicion at one time or another? Ben heads off to his weirdly interesting job as an insurance investigator. We meet Ben, whose fiancee is a hot/cold mess and Ben is preoccupied with the idea that she’s cheating on him as he heads to work. This book is mostly set in London with British characters, so it was a fun, different setting for me. The time travel can take some mental gymnastics, but it’s a book about time travel, so bear with it. Then he learns that time travel really does exist.Ĭhapter One of Extractedstarts in 2015. The prologue continues by backsliding a bit to 2046 where we are introduced to Roland, who is about to walk into the sea (forever) in a very proper British manner. The author explains in a sort of (non-boring) history lesson that time travel has been achieved, but also that it was only a rumor, except that certain parties refused to believe it was a rumor and set out to find the truth of the matter. Definitely sci-fi and an interesting start. I tapped through to page one and found the Prologue beginning in 2061. I figured it was “probably sci-fi” based on the starry pattern and the font.

I found the cover Extractedto be underwhelming. There are too many good books out there to waste time on the bad ones. (Yay, free books!) I generally read the first chapter of each of these books and if it doesn’t grab me by then, then I don’t bother to finish them. Haywood for free from one of Amazon‘s free monthly Prime downloads.
