So two days later, taking a deep breath and deciding not to get stressed about the adjusted history – I started again. With a lighter mindset and the attitude of just wanting to be entertained, it was a very good read. I even started reading some of the quotes of adjusted history out loud to whoever happened to be nearby, and their laughter helped me enjoy the book even more.

The author jumps the reader forward in time and, at the same instance, takes us back to a simpler life before Lextricity and other modern conveniences. Horse and buggies, trains and petticoats have all made a comeback (not sure I’m thrilled with the whole petticoat thing!). The main character Liberty is a 17 year old naïve and slightly immature (by today’s standards) girl who finds herself on the adventure of a lifetime. After jumping from a train to escape villains, she finds herself aligned with A.I. (yup gotta love it) or Agent Ice. While the two of them are trying to establish their places in the relationship, the world is quickly working on keeping them busy, figuring out the ½ map they have and throwing all kinds of interesting people their way. From Jesse James to Abraham Lincoln to Einstein!

This story has a little bit of a lot of genres, Historical Fiction, Western,Sci Fi, adventure, mystery and even a smidgen of a steampunk feeling. I highly suggest that you allow the whimsical side of you to just relax and enjoy the read. You might just find that there’s a lot more here than first meets the eye.
