I listened to And Then She Vanished by Nick Jones and found it entertaining enough to start the second book in the series right after. It's not really scifi, I mean, time travel could easily be tagged fantasy as well. I don't know if I'll finish the series though. It's missing something that I can't quite put my finger on. Somewhat shallow and the secondary characters are paper thin. Fine reading to pass the time (or spend 12 hours on a train...) but nothing I'll be thinking about once I'm done. I've been struggling to get through the first few chapters of Perdido Street Station for a while, I may give it another go this weekend.
