This was such a unique time travel and political terrorist thriller that I could not stop reading. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this book. This is a author I have not read before, but he is now in my do not miss list. Do yourself a favor and don't pass this story up.Mrhea@comcast.net

"Found in Time" eBook was published in 2017 and was written by J. K. Kelly (http://jkkelly.com). This is Mr. Kelly's first novel.

I categorize this novel as ‘R’ because it contains scenes of Violence and Mature Language. The story is based on today, but the team travels to various places and times on their missions. The primary character is US Marine Major JJ Jackson.

Jackson has been a covert operator for some time, but is now asked to lead a new, even more secret unit. The unit's mission is to test out a time travel device, then to eventually use it to fight the terrorists they have been confronted with. Their missions back in time are filled with danger and they meet several historical figures. Their most severe challenge comes from an unexpected quarter. 

I really enjoyed the 8 hours I spent reading this science fiction thriller. It does have a bit of a religious twist. I liked the characters developed in the novel, and the plot. I did have a feeling in the first half or so that it was a collection of short stories stitched together. I do hope that there are more books to follow with the same characters. The cover art is OK, but I don't think that it relates well to the story. I give this novel a 4.5 (rounded up to a 5) out of 5.

An interesting book....a fabulous idea of a select group of American secret operatives using time travel to go back to landmark events in history ie Hitler in the bunker and change things ie make sure Hitler died.....to later in the book saving the new American president from a terror attack....
The book is a mix of sci fi and adventure and would make a brilliant film
I found the constant use of American military talk ie rank,number etc annoying-but this would appeal more obviously to an American reader
An intrigiung idea for a book that was well ‘brought to life”,had good characters and was an enjoyable read .
