The Time Bubble #6
Vanishing Point
When people start disappearing, the world seems to forget they ever existed.
At an advanced academic institute in Canberra, Josh and Alice meet scientists Henry and Vanessa Jones who are experimenting with mind transference.
The four of them combine their technology to try and project their minds back through time into their younger bodies, thus achieving immortality.
After some initial success, unforeseen implications become apparent. When the timeline starts changing and people start vanishing, the world seems oblivious to their previous existence. The only people immune to this effect are those who have previously passed through a time bubble, but one by one, they are being killed.
This story is the sixth part of an epic series exploring the time travel genre in original and innovative ways. The novels follow the main characters from youth to middle age as they jump forwards, backwards, and sideways into alternate worlds.

I have found all the Time Bubble books hard to put down. This book was just as good as the previous ones in the series 🙂

Who knew you could monetise time travel or use it for your own evil designs
I've said it before, Jason Ayres has a superbly overactive imagination that fuels these wonderfully colourful adventures.
Here, we finally get an evil baddie to go toe to toe with the TTBT.
And now onto book seven...

A Fluffy, but Enjoyable Read
Though the villain in this 6th installment is cartoonish and over the top, I still found the story fun and interesting. Don't expect complex exposition here; the book moves along quickly and everything just conveniently works out. That said, it is a pleasant way to pass the time on a cloudy, rainy day.

A pretty decent chapter in the Time Bubble series. It really makes you think about just how terrible a bad actor getting their hands on time travel technology could be. In fact this might be the best argument that time travel is impossible as its inevitable that a bad person would get their hands on it and wreak havoc.

More reader-friendly than book 5
The previous book was so full of Brit-speak, British locations and chiefly British foods and drinks, it felt like the author was excluding the entire rest of the world (maybe not Australia) as an audience. Not so Book 6. It was a more enjoyable read.

This is going to be a short review. I've really enjoyed the first 5 in this series but this one, just didn't do it for me. There was a bad Leaper in Quantum Leap and this reminded me of that character. Just thought it was too extreme in how it went and having read the other books, you know what will come.

Well that
Was a surprise. Book six of the series brings a whole new perspective. A nasty home grown psychopath for one. It's just too risky to mention much more without putting in spoilers. Suffice to say that this was another very entertaining instalment.

I absolutely love the Time Bubble books and this was no exception. I love how each story is fresh and full of new ideas. I was always looking forward to having time to pick it back up and continue the adventure.

The story has moved off in a new and interesting way. These novels continue to be interesting and mostly fun, but there are a few nasty surprises.

The series continues to engross without being too technical. People orientated and highlights the perils that time travel.

In many ways this is the best yet in the series. The story of Vanessa is full of tension and suspense keeping you turning the pages. I recommend.

Another great entry into the Time Bubble series
Since discovering the firs Time Bubble book last year, I’ve eagerly jumped to the next one. The sixth instalment did not disappoint. These books are a must read for any time travel fans.

It was good to get together with the gang again.
At least that's what it feels like. It's like meeting the family when you start reading the latest story in this excellent series of stories.
Another cracking story from Jason. I love these books and I'm eagerly awaiting the next one addy the end of the year.

I didn’t quite enjoy this as much as last year. Is it perhaps time to move on? Not that it was a bad story, but there was an element of predictability to the whole thing.
