About this listen

Professor Luke Mann is the leader of a team heading back to the Languedoc, year 1305. Their goal? To study the environment, refine delta T and, in Luke's words, "to change the universe". With him is Artemisia Wormwood: A Medieval historian who needs the money to save the life of her dying sister.

But time travel is untested, and dangerous. Saint-Guilhem-le-Desert, a village in Languedoc, is a desert of souls. Monastery, pilgrimage path, and legend; that's all there is. Perfect for scientists who have promised their work will not interfere with history.

They have nine months, and they're not telling Artemisia about their research. Who needs a historian when the village looks like a gamer’s dream?

Prepare for a bumpy ride with bad coffee.

The blurb makes this sound like a cool concept. I’m not sure how the author managed to make the execution so boring. I kept hoping it would get interesting, but it was just telling, telling, telling, and somehow not even telling anything interesting. It didn’t get better. I abandoned this at chapter 18. The narrator was also rather uninflected despite a nice accent.

Boring
