My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have said it before and will say it again, I love boxsets. This is a fabulous series to get in that form because you are getting an enormous amount of story and adventure and more for such and amazing value that it almost feels like a disadvantage to the amazing author. You can always tell with these books how much time and effort went into them with the imagination and fervor that is in the worldbuilding of the novels. They are just amazing and each one is a new adventure that will have you hanging on the edge of your seat as you navigate topics I am sure most wouldn’t even imagine could be so amazing and beautiful as well as fascinating. I am going to include the reviews of each of the first two books for now. I am not done with the third as it just released and just can’t give that to you yet until I do but I will be back to add to this when I do!

Journeys Through SpaceTime: Book One
Journeys Through SpaceTime by James Talisman is his debut novel and it is a doozy. This book is not one that I would normally pick up because I tend to get extremely overwhelmed with multiverse story lines. Now, I must say this book had its confusing times where I found myself rereading sometimes three times to finally sort it all out, but I felt like this book was worth it. That is where the key to a great book lays for me. He has managed to build up these beautiful and vibrant worlds so that you feel as if you are traversing space right along with the characters. I enjoyed the amount of effort and time that was so apparent while reading, that was put into this novel to make it all that it is. This book also incorporates a lot of different characters as well as the worlds so be prepared to take a deep breath and dedicate the time to this novel to get the maximum enjoyment out of it. I read it over holiday break so I feel like maybe I will need a reread when the tiny terrorists return to school lol. I will definitely be around for a book two to see what will come next.

Journeys Through TimeSpace: Book Two
Ok so I do not read multiverse or sci-fi books, like ever, but the first one in this series of Journeys Through from James Talisman kept me hooked completely from beginning to end and I am so excited that the second one lived up to the same standards and hype. Talisman has a knack for writing some vivid scenes that will literally take you away through the vast ‘multiverse’ and make you fall in love with the characters along the journey. I love how this is not an original idea per say amongst the sci-fi world, it is completely written in a way that it is fresh and very original. I can’t honestly say I have ever read other books like this or enjoyed them.

I know this is said to be able to be read as a stand alone novel but I would HIGHLY recommend that you start with the first book, Journeys through SpaceTime. You will not be disappointed that you had the chance to experience the universe that Talisman has created in these novels. I am very excited to see what the next book will hold and what characters and worlds we will get to visit in that one.
