Publisher's summary

Bennett Monroe has had a very bad day. For most that would mean spilling coffee down one's shirt or running late for work. Bennett's bad days involved being torn into a different time. With a companion who may like him or try to kill him, depending on the day, Bennett and his sometimes partner Cynthia slip and tumble their way through history. Bennett not only has to deal with his strange gift; he also has to handle a teetering madman he reluctantly calls "master" and the parents who abandoned him. Bennett's day went from bad to worse. Will he pass his insidious master's test? Will he want to? Join Bennett and Cynthia as they find out the truth and send the world into chaos or save it from ripping itself apart.

Interesting twists on a time traveling story

I received a free copy of this book in exhcange for an honest review.

This book tells the story of Bennett and Cynthia, who work as time-travelers. While the concept of time traveling has been used in many other stories, this story has a unique twist to it. While the story is very interesting, it was the characters and the insight into their histories which kept me tuned in. I really liked the twists involving Bennett and his back story. And the twist at the end was unforeseeable.

This is a quick and enjoyable read. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and am looking forward to going on more adventures with Bennett and Cynthia.

Poor attempt

The story might have been interesting had the narrator not read like he was talking between bites of food in his mouth.
There were too many repeated adjectives and the story developed way too slowly.
