My Review
Let me start off with saying that this is part of a trilogy and I highly recommend you read all three books. That being said Timekeeper has well-crafted characters, interesting plot and the kind of books that keeps you entertained until the very end.

"Timekeeper" eBook was published in 2017 and was written by Heather Albano (https://www.facebook.com/heatheralbanoauthorpage/). This is Ms. Albano's second publication and the second in her "Keeping Time" series.

I categorize this novel as ‘R’ because it contains scenes of Violence. The story is set across time in Europe. The primary character is 17-year-old Elizabeth Barton. She, along with her love interest William Carrington and mysterious friend Maxwell, continue their fight to put the timeline back the way it should be. 

They use their time travel pocketwatch to move to one critical moment in time after another. They are fighting a very dangerous battle to keep both the Frankenstein like monsters and the metal giants from ever being created. They must also find a way to keep Napolean from victory at Waterloo. 

I thoroughly enjoyed the 9 hours I spent reading this 280-page young adult steampunk thriller. This novel is just a continuation of "Timepiece" the first novel in the series. The characters are much the same as in that first novel. I have enjoyed the first two novels in the trilogy and look forward to the third. I like the chosen cover art. I give this novel a 4 out of 5.

My book reviews are also published on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/31181778-john-purvis).

I really enjoyed the second installment of this trilogy. Getting to know Elizabeth & William better & who they are in relation to Maxwell. Their continued adventure & to know where things will eventually end up.
The first book was a little slow for me & I found Elizabeth's character a bit petulant but I can now understand her frustrations & disliking the role life has put her in because she's a woman & not a man. She has a courageous heart & one that wants to see the world made right & does all that she can to make sure things happen & change.
William is a nice, calm contrast to Elizabeth's spur of the moment, feisty personality. They compliment each other well & he tempers Elizabeth's exuberance.
I would definitely recommend this series to anyone that likes period, steampunk genres.

Timekeeper is the third and final installment in Heather Albano's series "Keeping Time". As with the first two books of the series, it's not my cup of tea. I truly tried to get involved in the storyline and have read absolutely glowing reviews which made me anticipate the series... Sadly I am the oddball who didn't fall madly in love with it.

This book was a great follow up to the first in the trilogy as we find out how the changes induced in the first book impacted the course of history and whether it corrected the world or brought its own list of problems for them to fix. Of course, you know the answer to that as it is only the second book of the trilogy,

I really loved how we got to know Gavin Trevelyan's wife, Brenda, whose back story and role in this book is much larger than in the first. It was also enticing to read about another similar, yet different Katerina. There are so many other surprises and mysteries along the way, but I won't spoil them! The writing is still engaging, the characters still draw you in and I was still sitting on the edge of my seat, anxious to find out what happened next!

This is a must read, as is the rest of the trilogy!

This original story line continues as the cast of characters must "fix" the history that has been broken to limit consequences in the future. As they move through time, the reader must keep up with the differing changes that happen quickly. Whether they are the right changes we won't be able to tell until time moves forward again. This is book #2 of the trilogy. It picks up right where the first book left off and zooms into history at a very quick pace. The characters must decide quickly what actions to take or face another drastic change in their tomorrows. A unique spin on a history book that has a little fun as they work.

I read all 3 books in this trilogy and I would highly recommend all three! All 3 books had:
Great writing with strong language skills.
Good plot that will make you turn pages fast.
Great plot that will make you crave more!
I hope to read more books by this author for sure!

The first in a trilogy of timetravel cum cyberpunk novels that read like some undiscovered manuscripts of H.G. Wells.

Time travel, yes, but the adventurers through whose eyes we see events future and past (for them) are not from OUR present, nor indeed our future, but from 1815. Their future is 1885, a cyberpunk Empire under threat from the descendants of Frankenstein’s monsters, and from the oppressive regime that has evolved to deal with them.

The writing is strong – it’s such a pleasant surprise to read a book of this type and not instantly think “fan-fiction” – as is the characterisation and feel for historical detail. As I said, it evokes a feeling of reading Wells, but with admixtures of Jane Austen and Mary Shelley.

Interesting, original, and well worth reading!
