Book Description

When an archaeologist alien invites you on a quest to discover hidden treasure, you don't say no. And the fact that his handsome, blue-skinned assistant will be along for the ride, is an added bonus.


For space and time adventurer, Quality Times, the chance to go exploring in the caves of Azrokaran is too good an opportunity to refuse. But a startling discovery leads to a trip back in time, and loyalties are tested to the limits as those within the group reveal their true colours.


The first book in the Quality Times series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Times Indeed! May 23, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
Love Quality Times! She's a tongue-in-cheek time-traveling adventurer. Her sidekick, Tim, is a great foil for her jaded demeanor as she's dragged into an ever-increasingly dangerous adventure with twists and turns to keep you turning the pages! Tim, an unapologetic Whovian, tries telling people he's a Timelord from Gallifrey, much to Quality's chagrin.

In their first adventure (of many, I hope) Quality Times and Tim are on a quest to see the universe. With a time machine/space ship that shrinks down to the size of a child's toy, all of time and space are theirs for the exploring. So where do they go? Why to a resort, of course. That's where they meet Bob, a self-styled archaeologist complete with safari outfit and pith helmet. Bob's hunky assistant Qez, a.k.a. Bluey the "sexy police siren" catches Quality's eye.

Joining forces with Bob and Qez, Quality and Tim try their hand at grave robbing, I mean archaeology, and end up taking on more than they'd anticipated.

The Whispering Tombs is a rollicking good romp complete with betrayal, greed, grave robbing, gunplay and extinct critters that keep popping up at the darnedest moments. It's a quick and fun escape that ends all-too-quickly and leaves you turning the page looking for more. You'll gasp with surprise, laugh out loud at some parts and groan at others. All-in-all, expect to be delighted and entertained.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dull as a wooden spoon January 3, 2013

An attempt at a time travel / Alien archaeology story that just didn't work for me.

The main character keeps a starship in her pocket. Better to remember where she parks it, I suppose.

Dumb characters and very stereotypical dialog.

I'd pass if I were you.

It was a very interesting story, easy to follow. Interesting but very strange. I had forgotten that it was a short story, and I thought it ended very strange.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Times Ahead with This Book! September 19, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This story introduces the reader to Quality Times and her adventures through space and time. As a Doctor Who fan, I instantly delved into the story with interest and found that, despite the similarities between The Doctor and Quality, the two characters are quite different. Quality is a refreshing take on a time traveler that is sure to delight readers of all types. The banter between her and Tim set me to chuckling several times throughout the story.

I loved reading this story and look forward to the next one. Look out, Doctor! Here comes Quality Times!

4.0 out of 5 stars Short but Sweet June 24, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I recieved this as a member giveaway on Library Thing

The Whispering Tombs is the first in the Quality Times series. It is a short but delightful sci-fi novella. I enjoyed the pop culture references and the doctor who feel of this story.It could have been a bit longer as it felt a bit rushed. However, The story kept me engaged and wondering what would happen next. I cannot wait for the next stories in this series.
