"Narrator Lorelei King beautifully captures the wide emotional range and unforgettable characters in this utterly fascinating story of time travel, the first in the award-winning Clay Lion series. When Brooke Wallace's beloved younger brother dies of pulmonary fibrosis, she decides to use her one government-approved trip to go back in time to try to reverse his illness and prevent his death. King demonstrates the warm relationships of the Wallace family members and flawlessly expresses Brooke's emotions as she embarks on her mission. Listeners will be deeply moved as she maintains her religious faith and learns from the events that befall her family." S.G.B. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2015]

No attention is given to the number of entrants, only the quality of the book being judged. In some cases the same award is given more than once in the same category, which is a result of more than one book receiving the same judging score."
