FAB #3
FAB: Revolver
The year is 2146
Time travel is possible. Artificial intelligence has all but replaced the human workforce and even immortality might be just around the corner.
This is the future that John Lennon has woken up to.
The former Beatle – having undergone experimental cryosleep in the late twentieth century – is now cast adrift in twenty-second century New York.
But not for long.
A killer has been sent back to the 1960s. Its mission? To kill the young Lennon, wipe The Beatles off the cultural map, and ensure a dark future awaits for all mankind.
To stop this happening, Lennon must travel back to the 1960s and revisit his fab past. But that’s only the beginning of his journey through time. An even bigger task awaits – if he can survive.
FAB: Revolver is part alternate history, part sci-fi, part Beatles fanfiction, part comedy. It is the third and final book in the FAB Trilogy.

Fleeing his crimes, John Lennon puts himself in a cryogenic freeze, and wakes up 150 years in the future. After escaping the hospital, he finds out someone travelled back in time to kill him before he was famous. Lennon goes back in time to stop him.
An odd sort of trilogy. I'm glad I read it.

Not kindle unlmited, All individually available, bit cheaper to get the 3 pack set. Bought this while back but hadn't read it until now. Few insosistencies or just worded too oddly {if he bought a beard why was he cutting up a wig to make a beard, etc} even though could have been just a bit better was interesting alternate history type thing. The ending/last 1/3 was definitely uhm 'different'. Liked 2 the least and 3 was sometimes confusing but still.... 1 was freebie day then bought the 3 pack a while back.

A fitting end for a legend
I wasn't sure what to make of Revolver to begin with, Books 1 & 2 were fairly grounded in reality, all be it an alternative one. John Lennon had been saved by a normal twist of fate not by anything fantastical and all the events that happened accross the two book could possibly happen, even if they were unlikely. Then book 3 starts with an attack that could have come from any number of sci-fi move's. My first thought was that the author had 'jumped the shark' but, although the book is more sci-fi than the previous two it still makes sense, concentrating on the long term consequences of John's actions in the previous books, we are shown a disturbing vision of a future led by greed.

An excellent conclusion to the FAB series. This one adds a bit of Sci-Fi to the alt-history / thriller vibe. I devoured this book in a few days. Do yourself a favour and pick them all up!
Just one thing. Mark'll need to write another so they can be a Fab Four and not a Fab Three :-)
