Summary
If you were catapulted back to 1976, what would you do?
Jason Apsley has a mind-boggling second chance to change the future, but will he take it?
Meet Jason Apsley, a 42-year-old divorcee who's an opinionated, miserable bugger—struggling with life, exacerbated by his negative attitude. A random event shifts time, causing Jason to continue life in 1976, six months before he's due to be born. He even left behind Beth, his one and only friend who supported him through some difficult times.
Can life get any worse?
Although Jason is the same person, he finds himself teleported into the life of another Jason Apsley from a different generation, one with a very different outlook on life. All alone, Jason tries to enlist the support of his grandfather on this turbulent journey and finds he has to adapt quickly, as every encounter brings further head-spinning challenges.
But what of Beth, his one true friend who suffered a traumatic childhood? Will Jason be brave enough to seize this opportunity to change her past? Can Jason change the future and become more like other Jason, or will time refuse to bend?
Will Jason learn from his past and take this second chance?
Jason Apsley's Second Chance is the first novel in the Jason Apsley series. If you like time travel with humor and a fast-paced adventure, then you'll love Jason Apsley's Second Chance by Adrian Cousins.

1976, what a year!
The subject matter was the link to getting this read as I had fond memories of 1976.
overall a good listen with a sprinking of what 1976 was like but a bit more would have been nice.
I thought the ending was a little rushed. everything in the garden is good, knock at the door, next book.

Excellent
This was a great story, a lot different to my usual sci-fi genre, yet still found it ticking all the boxes and then some! I hope there’s a sequel. I listened to this entire book in one night, take a bow Adrian!

Brilliant Story and Narration
I adored this both in terms of the story and the delivery by Lee. A huge well done to Adrian and Lee on this collaboration.
If I was to shoot holes, I'd just say the voice for Jenny bordered on hilarity, but didn't ruin it.
I'm excited to purchase the next book.
If you're reading this review...... don't hesitate, buy it!!

Enjoyable time travel adventure
I found this story funny, realistic in its description of the time period and enjoyed the twists and turns, which weren’t predictable.
The narrator was mainly good, however some characters reminded me of comedy voice overs eg. The South African girlfriend.
There was a nod to the plot of ‘life on mars’ but not by any means a copy. Jason is a believable main hero who we can empathise with.
I am looking forward to the sequel!

Great book - highly recommended
I loved this book. It's funny, well written, and I really like the self-deprecating manner of the main character. Excellent narration by Lee Beddow

The narrator wasn’t the best
Story was good and the details from the 70’s was pretty accurate- looking forward to the next episode.

Only three books?!!
I always find it hard to settle into a new book. However, this was an easy, immediate hit for me. Great characters and great performance. I didn’t like the narrative voice at first but I’m glad I persevered as I thought it was a great little story. Lots of swearing though.
Off to buy the others…

Nostalgia, mystery and laughs
A trip down memory lane intertwined within a cracking story with characters that are brought to life with belting narration. Highly recommended.

Light hearted and engaging.
But of a slow start, and getting used to the voice, but soon couldn’t stop. Great book with a funny and feel good feel to it. Going straight to get the second book now!
