A unit of the Seventh Cavalry is on a mission over Afghanistan when their plane is hit.Sergeant James Alexander, Private Kady Sharakova, Private Charley Kawalski, PFC Autumn Eaglemoon, PFC Sparks Campbell, and nine other soldiers bail out of the burning plane. When they hit the ground, they are not in Afghanistan. Not only are they four thousand miles from their original destination but it appears they have descended two thousand years into the past where primitive forces fight each other with swords and arrows. The platoon is thrown into a battle where they must choose sides quickly or die. They are swept along in a tide of events so powerful that their courage, ingenuity and weapons are tested to the limits of their durability and strength. The four women in the unit are trained soldiers, skilled in the art of combat, but they are not prepared for the brutal reality of war. They are more than capable of fighting alongside the men, and, at times, defending the others in close quarters fighting. But when the battle is won, they must come to grips with their destruction of life.The Seventh is forced to join Hannibal’s army and fight his battles, at least until they can find their way home. However, as their journey takes them over the Alps and down the length of Italy, friendship and even romance begins to form between these hardened soldiers from past and present. Powerful bonds that reshape each soldier’s hopes and dreams for the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Positively stunning storytelling!
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2021
Verified Purchase
From the very first paragraphs, and to the last line of the last page, an incredibile, hold-your-breath journey into a past accompanying one of the greatest military leaders of all time. The 7th Cavalry Airborne through a fluke? a weird natural event? end up thrown back in a time they need to quickly come to Terme with if they want to survive. Superbly written, most historical facts accurate (well, mostly) and characters one gets to know and care for. All in all, can't recommend this book too highly; truly an awesome read which will have you flipping pages far into the night!

Well written, with historical accuracy, sufficient drama to provide belief to the SiFy situation, but concludes shy of a viable conclusion that includes the necessary changes their incursions into historic outcome caused their own time (as the "luck of the draw" that is birth, their first changes would affect the lives of at least some of the time travellers, which also deserves exploration).

The characters in this novel are wonderful in their diverse personalities. It makes their adventure all the more interesting and it is impossible not to care about them. I loved the dialogue and how they developed such a deep camaraderie in the face of such overwhelming circumstances. It is a testament to their strength to see how the author guides them to deal with their challenges.

The story lands these unlikely people back, way back, in time. Hannibal crossing the Alps complete with all the fanfare, elephants, an army that exceeds any other and true grit is a unique setting to discover for a group of hard tack Marines. I really enjoyed reading this novel and I can say from my perspective, it has all the elements of a fascinating story. I would love to see it made into a film.

The premise intrigued me and the story started off well but about halfway through it bogs down in War strategy. Also some of the language acquisition was not believable The ending certainly was abrupt

The book is very easy to read and follow. The characters are well thought out and you learn but and pieces about them as you go. It's a very interesting take on what could happen if one could go back in time. I usually hate endings of books, it's as if the writer loses their minds or something. This book was different. I enjoyed the ending! It was completely plausible!! Kudos Charley Brindley!

5.0 out of 5 stars Military SciFi - Time Travel
Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2020

I love military SciFi and time travel stories. Moreover, as a Vietnam veteran of the US Army Special Forces, I love stories involving paratroopers or special ops soldiers. In this book, Charley Brindley combines all of those elements as well as an alternate history theme involving Hannibal in the Second Punic War. The characters are well drawn, the action believable and the story line is well conceived. A very enjoyable read.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hollywood Research
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2021

There are so many historical errors in this book as to make me wonder what, if any, research was done.

Two egregious ones which stand out ...

1) Roman Warships were rowed by slaves. BZZZT! Wrong. Greek and Roman Warships were rowed by free men. Slaves rowing galleys dates to the Renaissance.

2) Romans in the late 3rd century BC didn't use coins. BZZZT! Wrong. The Republic had introduced coins in the late 4th century BC.

2a) Ancient Romans (and Ancients in general) used Gemstones as currency. BZZZT! Did he do his 'research' by playing Dungeons and Dragons? Gemstones were NEVER used as currency. There are many many many reasons why - but the one that stands out is that, prior to the invention of faceting (15th-16th centuries AD), gemstones were polished and looked - dull and relatively unimpressive.

The story is sorta OK, not especially believable, but not excessively unbelievable, but it is rife with misleading and wrong information.

I was hooked right away into this time travel tale with a twist! The action, personalities and attention to detail kept me reading long after bedtime! I wish there was a book two out or coming out soon. I'm surely hoping the story doesn't end here. Thanks for a wonderful read!

They have fallen through time and space. Now they are in 216 BC caught up in Hannibal's attack across the Alps on Rome. What's the plan for tomorrow is to find a way to get back home to their own time. The are introducing changes to history as we know it. At first small things and increases in complexity and effect on the historical out come. How much is too much?

4.0 out of 5 stars The Last Mission
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 2, 2019

I found this fascinating. When a plane full of both male and female US soldiers gets downed, they discover they have slipped through a time portal and are caught up in the battles between Hannibal and the Romans. Decisions have to be made, a side has to be chosen. And they must also decide whether to let history as they know it run its course or whether they can use their advance knowledge.
Alliances are formed, relationship built, lives from both times connect, and they are drawn into the fibre of daily life while they are trying to find a portal back home.
There are a lot of battles, and these are soldiers so expect a lot of descriptions of the fighting and tactics. I did gloss over some of these but overall, I enjoyed the story and got drawn in.
There is a cerain amount of bad language including several uses of the F word, but it wsn't too excessive. There are some scenes of violence but they are not gratuitious.

Interesting story of modern day troopers in a bermuda triangle style wormhole through time. They must find a purpose and a way to live - and, if they're lucky, a way back.
