In Times Passed

by L. Darby Gibbs

An accidental inventor of time travel takes his desire for anonymity back 200 years where his struggle to live as an average Joe demands he accept the expectations present at his birth and use them to recreate society and put into motion what he jumped into the past to avoid.

About the author

L. Darby Gibbs, aka Elldee: I have lived all over the country, so I don't feel I come from anywhere specific, but I started in Maryland and consider California my current home base. I am a teacher of creative writing.

At thirteen, I read science fiction almost exclusively, reading Asimov first and moving alphabetically down the library shelf, then turned to fantasy for a while taking in everything up through Tolkien. I spend my free time reading many of the classics, science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and contemporary fiction.

I have four fantasy series and a nonfiction book on narrative frameworks available in eBook form on Amazon, Smashwords, Kobe and other fine eBook retailers.

I read the sample and it was pretty good. You could definitely tell that it's leading you up to something. I plan on reading this book and finishing it, but until then, I give this book three stars.

Great reading

I give this book five star rating because the characters were engaging. The story was easy to read yet complex enough to keep the reader turning the page. Going to get book 2.

Not Kindle Unlimited, this was either permafree or free the day I found it, the others are neither, and doubtful will get them, mostly because ku and too many other books available for 'free' but also because it was overly long and too descriptive in places. Couple of places didn't make sense but maybe lost concentration, even though speed reader, because again some parts were overly long. The blurbs are totally different in different places for the book, and had I not known otherwise would have thought it was 2 different books.
