Time's Echo: A CHRONOS Files Novella Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Kiernan Dunne abandoned his family ties to help Kate fight the Cyrists, and he's never regretted that for one moment. But he doesn't understand why Kate can't remember that night in 1893 Chicago, when she turned back to face the killer chasing them through the smoky corridors of the World's Fair Hotel. Kate placed the CHRONOS key around his neck and made his eight-year-old self promise to wear it always, and that's a promise Kiernan has never broken. When Kate suddenly vanishes after a Cyrist-engineered time shift, that hidden medallion is Kiernan's only hope for finding her. He returns to the Cyrist fold to look for clues, but his search will lead him back to the question that has haunted him for years - what really happened after he left Kate at the World's Fair Hotel? This digital novella gives Timebound lovers a glimpse at Kate in another timeline and helps set the stage for Time's Edge, the second book in The CHRONOS Files Series, coming from Skyscape in October.

In Timebound we are caught up in a world that kept shifting as things were changed around in the past. Kate’s grandmother is trying to stop her grandfather from switching more things in the past to create more followers to the Cyrist’s cult of followers and whatever end game he has planned for the future.Timebound had by far the strangest love triangle I’ve ever read. Kiernan remembers Kate from a previous time line where they were lovers. She doesn’t remember that time line at all. Kate is dating Trey in Timebound and if she succeeds in making changes to the past he won’t remember her at all.Okay so I didn’t really get attached to Kiernan in Timebound, the majority of the time he was his eight-year old self while he and Kate were together. But I am totally attached to Kiernan’s character now, and Trey I’m so sorry but I’m rooting for him a bit. Time’s Echo shows a Kate and Kiernan that are deeply in love and have been together for a year and a half until one day she just disappears.Now Kiernan must figure out why she was taken out of the timeline they were in and how to get her back. He is playing a dangerous game with Pru (Kate’s psychotic aunt) and Simon who seem to hold the information he needs. Also Saul is setting up for something big and to help Kate he must try to solve that riddle as well.He will do everything he can to protect her”This was not supposed to be our first kiss, Kate. But if you do not hurry, it will almost certainly be our last.”I’m glad I read the novella as it gives some extra insight into the Cyrist’s network and Saul’s plans for the future and the lengths he is willing to go. It also showed that some people might not be as good or as bad as we initially thought.
I'm not sure where Rysa Walker meant this novella to fall in The Chronos Files series. I give it 3 stars as a stand alone novella, 4 stars as part of the series.I wouldn't really recommend this novella as a stand alone piece. Because there were too many references to premises established in book one that weren't fully fleshed out here, I think it would be confusing for a reader who's new to the Chronos Files. There's a lot to digest without the background of book one - ramifications of time line shifts, references to book one events, and the concept of Pru's younger and older self interacting with each other.My suggestion to anyone looking to buy this book is read it between book one (Timebound) and book two (Time's Edge) of The Chronos Files. I read it after book two and I wish I'd read it after book one to make book two a richer reading experience. If you consider this as Kiernan's backstory, you'll enjoy the new point of view and it'll give you insights to some of the major players before heading into book two.It won't, however, answer the some base questions that are still hanging out there waiting to be answered.1. How can Jess's granddaughter just cease to exist, yet two Kate's exist simultaneously? There's Kiernan's Kate at the beginning of the novella who completely disappears after the time shift and the Kate of book one who Kiernan meets later on in the novella during the incident where the novella and book one cross paths. That second Kate has been living for seventeen years - and we fully meet her in book one - at the same time Kiernan has been living with his Kate.2. Without spoiling book one for you, there's also another major time line event where families cease to exist.
