Eighteen-year-old Oliver Orph witnesses his girlfriend vanish in an unprecedented Time Deletion Event. When Time Police descend on him, he makes a run for it and in his panic time travels without the aid of time travel equipment.
He can travel through time and he never knew he was able to as Time Travel does not exist in his year.
When Rogue time travellers arrive and tell him no one in all of known history has his time travel powers, they try to convince him to join them and stand against the world time order. All Oliver wants to do is find out where his girlfriend has gone despite their pleas to help him and a future where all the timelines are confused and jumbled.
He is given a timer which counts down the percentage chance of finding his girlfriend.
Enter Evie Willedalore - a buxom, stroppy, Rogue time traveler girl who pretends to assist him in his search for his girlfriend while the time travel police chase them through time, though she has other plans for him. Tension builds as the countdown timer whittles away his want to rescue her.

About the author
Shane A. Mason
9 books17 followersShane A. Mason hails from the rugged South Island of New Zealand where a lot of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings were shot.
He wrote his first novel at 18 but upon reflection decided it was a whiney teenage angst-ridden diatribe and shelved it thinking he needed more living and experience.
20 years later after marriage, divorce, time spent in a cult, part time soldier, chip cooker, proof reader, farm pest remover, truck greaser, accounts sorter-outer, engineering supervisor, bit part actor, and attaining a 4th dan black belt in karate, and training and working as a naturopath - he watched the six DVD series on the making of Lord of the Rings. This led to an epiphany fuelled panic as he realised he had a trail of unfinished novels screaming out to be finished.
Having devoured the Harry Potter series and got frustrated with the eventual predictability of the story lines (come on – let’s face it – they got formulaic), he decided to finish his semi-fantasy action-adventure young-adult novel based around his Prema Ayuveda training. Prema Ayurveda is the art of ancient Indian mind-body-soul medicine. Roughly translated it means “nurturing knowledge of life.”.
Rather than write a text book, he decided to follow the ancients and couch all the meaning of ancient texts in a cool epic adventure around four teens that represent four parts of the mind.
Shane currently resides in Auckland, New Zealand where he divides his time between writing, marketing, family and martial arts – though he prefers to daydream and flit off into the nether-sphere where most of the ideas he comes up with are just waiting there for him.

I was fortunate enough to receive an advanced copy of Time Chase by Shane A. Mason, and I'm thrilled to share my thoughts on this exciting time-traveling adventure.
The story follows a young protagonist who discovers he has a time traveling ability. He embarks on a thrilling journey through history to fimd his girlfriend. Mason's writing is engaging and easy to follow, making it a perfect choice for younger readers. The pace of the story is well-balanced, with plenty of action and suspense to keep readers hooked.
One of the things I enjoyed most about Time Chase was the way Mason explores the potential consequences of time travel. The character must navigate the delicate balance between changing the past and preserving the future. This adds a layer of depth and complexity to the story that will appeal to older readers as well.
If you're looking for a fun and thought-provoking read, I highly recommend Time Chase. It's a fantastic adventure that will leave you eager for more. I can't wait to see what happens in the next installment of the series.
