Summary
Dash Keane is about to become the biggest star in history.

As a poor teenager living in the Dregs, Dash Keane can only escape his dismal reality by competing in illegal rooftop races and staying up late to watch the timenet with his younger brother.

When there is an opportunity to participate in a competition set thousands of years in the past, he uses his rooftop racer skills to catch the eye of Mr. Myrtrym, head of entertainment for the massive Dominus Corporation.

It is the chance of a lifetime when Dominus Corp. hires Dash to be a timestar—the focus of his own series in which he must survive some of the most dangerous periods in history, including the Cretaceous period, feudal Japan, the Wild West, and the Golden Age of Piracy.

But when empathy for the people of the past conflicts with the desires of his new employer, he must decide whether the price of fame is worth it, a decision that may cost him everything.

"Hall’s energetic prose immediately pulls readers into the action, resulting in a high-octane romp that delivers thrills and chills aplenty."
"A breakneck futuristic thriller about preserving loyalties despite promises of wealth and fame...the book’s convergence of time travel and reality television is striking."
"Echo Nova is a fast-paced, action-focused YA sci-fi novel..its protagonist’s struggles with the price of fame can be easily looked at through a real-world, social media lens."
"Clint Hall’s teen-starring sci-fi Echo Nova sprints in the footsteps of Ready Player One and The Maze Runner, yet with time-leaping portals that mirror our present reality."
