Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman – Review by Gail Guerrero
4 stars
This story gives you a new level of appreciation for the multiverse theory. You have multiple people across space and time that hear one voice with the same message. I used to dislike how people just become heroes when they didn’t want to. Like the weight of the world rest solely on you. The author gave it a little twist and it changed my opinion slightly. These individuals seemed to mesh well. The goal was clear and it felt like everyone was willing to play their roles. There a multiple POVs and many layers. It gets a little wordy in places and it drags. But the adventure and characters keep you interested. I kept reading because of the suspense. You just can’t help but see what happens next. The amount of time of thought put into the details is amazing. To connect so many worlds, times and people in one story is amazing. It did get overwhelming keeping up with who is who but overall it was a really great read. If I was really inti sci-fi it would be a close top 5.
Journeys Through SpaceTime by James Talisman.
This is James’ debut book and the first book in the “Journeys Through” series. This genre (sci-fi, fantasy) is out of my norm but I knew that this. Ok had to be on my ‘Must Read’ list!!! I am so glad that I did!!!! The way that James wrote this book had you feeling like you were actually involved in the story!! You can tell that he put his heart and soul into writing this book and I am so excited to see what he has instore for us next!!!
A journey through space and time is a very interesting book and a brilliant debut novel each time period has it’s own unique setting. This book has a few different genre time travel, sci fiction, multi universe and fantasy. Taslmin has a way of bringing all these characters to and universes to life making you feel you have stepped into each of these worlds.
You need to be able to follow few different stories at once the descriptive writing in this book is amazing.
Journeys Through SpaceTime is a fabulous multiverse adventure journey with lots of action. It begins with a sword master’s son, a powerful queen, a skilled warrior, a college student, a reptilian humanoid scientist and a wise and beautiful leader. The worlds are very well developed, the book is also told in multiple points of view from the main characters which makes them all very well developed and interesting, and there are a lot of characters which can make it confusing at times. I loved following the adventures of all the characters and seeing them fight against evil. It’s full of exciting moments which will have you quickly turning the pages to find out what happens next! This is a great start to what I know will be a great series!

5 out of 5 stars
The story Journey’s Through SpaceTime (Journey’s Through Book 1) by James Talisman is an amazing read. It hooks you in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. The book has many different characters. I love how the author pays attention to detail when writing about what the characters are doing or where they are visiting at the time. I felt like I was right there with them on their journey. The book has action, danger, mystery, betrayal, and will keep you guessing as to what will happen next. I was turning pages to find out. I enjoyed reading about the characters and their stories. The way that they were written about had me caring about what happened to them. I felt a connection to many of them as they are introduced, and you learn more about them. This is a book that has several narratives and I enjoyed how each one was presented. This looks to be the first book in a series, and I can’t wait to read the next story. I highly recommend this book.
I give Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman, 5 stars.
This book takes individuals from many different worlds and links them together by one thing — they all have a mysterious voice they hear in their heads saying the exact same thing. Then thry each have to remember why they are hearing this voice. Each one of these characters is completely different and each one is dealing with a separate issue at the same time. Not only do the all have the same belief system, they are facing some sort of evil unique to their individual situations. That is the very basic outline of the story, put into a science fiction type of story.
The world building the author has created is absolutely incredible. There are multiple people in multiple worlds, and they are all created so well, you can picture yourself there. That is the goal of most fantasy/science fiction authors and this author nailed it. Then there are the characters. Again, each and everyone unique, with their own personalities and issues. These are not just flat placeholders to help the story along, the are very real.
Then there is the story itself. Actually, it is really like many stories in one book. To me, each person could easily have their own book. But the author rotates back and forth among the characters, making you wait to see what will happen next. But it is done so well, it does not feel forced or broken up at all. I was drawn into each story and could not wait to finish it. Of course, I have my favorites, but really, I would love to see them all again in future books.
While this book is definitely complex, the storytelling is phenomenal and I recommend to fans of science fiction and fantasy.
Journeys Through SpaceTime
by James Talisman
This book drew me in from the beginning. The character descriptions and world building was absolutely mesmerizing. I was taken on a wonderful adventure into a multiverse with such great detail that I felt like I was there. This book is definitely not a quick read, it’s a book that you need to pay attention to. The author did an extraordinary job intertwining and connecting the worlds and characters into a fantastic story. I have actually read this book twice already because I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss any details and I loved it just as much the second time around. This was a great read and I highly recommend this book.
This book was a little bit different than what I normally read, but the synopsis sounded intriguing so I gave it a shot. I was not disappointed. As I traveled through the stories and encountered the interconnectivity of each, I was astonished and intrigued. James Talisman wove together the many stories of different individuals into an interesting journey. One I was lucky to take. I recommend this book and feel any who read will not be disappointed.
5 Star
Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman is an Amazingly written Sci-Fi Fantasy that takes you on a very interesting journey. I’m going to be honest I wasn’t sure exactly what a multiverse was until looking it up. I even had to ask for clarity. But with that aside I truly enjoyed this book. I had my moments where I was a little confused but the more I read the more everything started to make sense. The world building just simply blew me away, I was hooked and had a hard time putting it . This is a “ thinking” book and had my brain in overdrive. If you enjoy time travel and multiverse with alittle suspense then I highly recommend reading this book. I see myself reading this book several times. I can’t wait to read more from this Author and see how everything plays out.

I’ll preface this by saying this is not a genre I read a lot, but the cover and synopsis made it to where I couldn’t pass it up. While I enjoyed the book, it was something very new to me as I had no clue what a multiverse really was until this.
Wonderful writing had me not wanting to put it down, and it painted some great pictures in my mind. I will say I had to write down who was who as I couldn’t keep names straight but that may have just been me and the distractions of my children.
All in all if this is your genre of choice, you’ll absolutely love it, and if you like great writing and storytelling this is also the book for you. I am looking forward to more from this author as if this is his debut novel, I can’t imagine what the next will be like with how well this was written. Congratulations on your debut novel!
Journey Through SpaceTime is the first book on the Journeys Through series and the first book by James Talisman. This story was so well written and instantly pulled me in till the end. I already cannot wait for book two. This book touched SciFi and multi worlds and universes. I literally could feel like I was right there in these worlds that the author created. The characters are well developed, and the plot one that really grabs at the readers.
You never could have guessed that this was the author’s first book. His words, his story, his mind and imagination truly shine in this book. I can only see good things coming from him and beyond ready for book two and more in the future from the author. I highly recommend this 5 star read.
Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) is an outstanding debut novel from James Talisman. In my opinion you would never believe that this was the work of a brand new author. I was majorly impressed by the standard of the writing.
I have never been a fan of science fiction before but have recently started to enjoy books in the fantasy genre. Due to this, I was intrigued by the blurb on this book and wanted to give it a try and I’m so glad that I did as I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Having read the first couple of ‘chapters’ I was really worried that I was going to struggle with the amount of characters, countries, races, galaxies etc as there is a lot of information to digest but this worry was unfounded. The author writes very clearly and concisely and keeps you well on track with what is going on. The writing is very descriptive and detailed and you can imagine exactly what going on. Please note, if you are going to read this book, there is a lot of bloodshed and violence. I admit to having shivers at some of the more gruesome scenes.
This book will take you on an epic adventure full of danger and intrigue, you won’t want to put it down.
A great read about adventure. A mysterious voice calls out acrosss the universe, sounding in the heads of a multitude of people from different planets. It brings together a series of characters as events unravel and they are taken on a quest of adventure and danger. What does the voice really want from them all?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. A series of well developed characters like the brave warrior Cassius or Hirisho trying to make his father proud or the wise and kind Nerities. However, at times it felt like there were a lot or characters to keep track of and this could have been reduced to help the readee follow the story.
A great example of world building with a wide range of fantatsical beings and worlds with their own rules and laws and societies wonderfully written. I liked the feel of different worlds having different feels to them like the Egyptian or samurai soldiers, making the universe feel diverse and full of culture and life and people, wonderfully written.
I liked the mystery of the voice and what it wanted, making you want to read on to find out answers.
However at times, it felt like the book was more concerned with characters than describing the details of the planet in question to engage the reader. The switches between worlds were often jarring and hard to follow and could have deserved a chapter each to give this and the description justice. Overall, a great read and I would give it four stars.
Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman. This book is AWESOME! This is not my favorite Genre but I loved this story and can’t wait for the next book! This book includes time travel, multiverse theory and sci-fi/fantasy. The story starts with all the different worlds we will enter and you get to meet all the characters that you will encounter. I will say this is not a book you can just breeze through, you actually have to pay attention to get the full story. There are tons of characters and tons of worlds and they all intertwine. Its amazing when you realize how things all come together. I loved the handy dandy guide at the beginning because I kept going back to it! The descriptions of all the worlds and characters make you feel like you’ve been there and know all the characters. You go from Earth to alien worlds with the turn of a page and you feel as if you’ve actually traveled there. Do yourself a favor and grab a copy of this book and get lost in it. If you love Sci/Fi you won’t be disappointed. Just remember its not a light read so be prepared to delve deep. You will love it! Can’t wait for the next one!

WOW…Just WOW… Until reading this book I had never heard, read or even knew about a multiverse genre. I actually had to ask what a multiverse was. Let me start by saying I don’t read sci fi and although my mind has not been changed and I won’t be searching for more multiverse or sci fi books in general, I must be completely honest and say that I seriously got into this book and will be searching out more from this author. I did not understand a lot and got lost many times because I was like all over space and I’ll admit I got really confused as there was a lot of moving parts to this story. There were also many many characters involved and keeping them all straight was a bit hard at times.
In saying all of that, this book was written beautifully and when I was able to concentrate only on this book I was able to keep things straight and what told me it was an outstanding story was that I usually listen to alot of my books using text to speech, I could not do that with this book because it needed my complete focus and I wanted to give it my complete focus and I did. The writing was so precise and I could tell a lot of care went into forming every word and every sentence.
Now in saying all of that…I’m going to read it again, it’s the first of a series and I am invested enough that I really need the second one and do hope to see some of my favorites return but now that I have enough of the story planted in my mind I want to go back and try to grasp some of the details I was a bit confused on, so thats my plan before the second one comes out.
I can only imagine that a true scifi fan will absolutely put this book within their top favorites and even those that don’t read this genre will absolutely love it!
Such an interesting book and a great Debut for this author!
I enjoyed this book throughout its entirety and the author’s writing style was great. There was so much detail that I felt like I was experiencing the story with the main characters. Speaking of Charcters, they all were fantastic. I’m having a hard time picking a favorite because they’re all great and have their own awesomeness about them. This is a SciFi book that takes us to different worlds, and the author has a handy Dandy guide at the beginning of the book that helps with the who’s who. A book full of suspenseful awesomeness, I enjoyed traveling through space time and I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future. I would recommend this to anyone that likes Science Fiction books!
Happy Reading!
When I read the blurb for this book, I was immediately intrigued. I dove into the pages with anticipation and am so very glad I found this new author.
To say the world building is epic might be an understatement. Talisman takes us on a journey through space and time (no pun intended). In fact, the world building was done on such a level that likened itself, in my estimation, to Terry Goodkind and Terry Pratchett.
Fantasy lovers, you will be enthralled by the characters you are introduced to and how everything interconnects. Truthfully, the level of detail I found in the pages I am not sure I will fully appreciate until I have read the story for a second and third time.
Talisman is truly gifted and has presented readers with a brand new universe to dive headlong into. I cannot wait to devour the pages again and slip back into the world that lay in its pages.
Journeys Through Space Time, by James Talisman, was an interesting journey. It is a thinking book. I found I had to read it in small installments. Or maybe I just think too much. I felt a need to think about some of the things in the story. Many actors on this stage and many acts. I feel the need to read it again because I get the feeling when I come to the end that I have missed something. Most stories when you get to the end you expect them to be all tied up in a bow. Not this one. It leaves you thinking long after you’ve read the last page. I hope this author is well on his way to many more good stories.
Journey Through SpaceTime by James Talisman was a great science fiction read! I would give this book a 5 out of 5 stars. I love science fiction because of the world building, the unique characters, and the philosophy they teach. James does a great job incorporating all 3 of my wants in Journey Through SpaceTime. The worlds that were presented just blew me away. I loved the variety, it really helped keep all the worlds separate in my head. The characters were well rounded and I loved the varied histories. Lastly, the life lessons were very impactful, especially in light of personal growth and development.
Journeys Through SpaceTime by James Talisman is the first book in the Journeys Through series. This is a first-time author and I was impressed by what I read. This is a book filled with science fiction, fantasy, time travel, and multiple universes. This is a well thought out and interesting book that kept me reading and engaged with the fascinating story. The characters are interesting and those from some of the other worlds harken back to mythology and our ancient history. I really liked the storytelling and the development of different locations. I look forward to what this author writes next and to see where he takes us in his series.
