The value for money just in terms of dollar per hour listening is excellent (over 11 hours long). Everything I said about Fata Morgana holds true with this one. First there was ‘Fata Morgana’ and now there is ‘A Gift of Time’.

I have struck gold with my last two audio books based around time travel. After that, though, things get really bizarre. While perfecting time travel, Cager and his new partner overcome enormous problems, even being hunted by dinosaurs in the Cretaceous. Then he receives help from a strange young woman with no history. Now he must use his advanced mathematical ability to build his own time machine to go back and try again. And those changes work against him at every turn, preventing him correcting the most serious mistake of his life. His every action alters the future he remembers until much of what he remembers never happened at all.

As payment for his help, the virtual creature living in the circuitry of the marooned glider, sends Cager back in time as his 10-year-old self, knowing everything he'd known at 80 and gives him access to advanced equations of space and time.īut living life over knowing the future isn't as easy as Cager has anticipated. While helping repair the marooned time traveler's glider, Cager realizes it can return him to his past to correct a mistake that had haunted him his entire life. When Micajah Fenton discovers a crater in his front yard with a broken time glider in the bottom and a naked, virtual woman on his lawn, he delays his plans to kill himself.
