I struggled to pick out a genre here because the book straddles a number of themes including time travel, science fiction, adventure and fantasy. Anyway, I opted for fantasy and if you think it's wrongly categorized you can let me know.

Here's what the book does:

"Whilst all the world stands still, Alex Trueman wanders alone in the silent streets of the city. All around are the motionless figures of his fellow citizens, caught in a moment, solid as marble. “He’s a Daydreamer,” states his school report and no one who knows Alex would disagree. But this mental state, this condition of temporary disassociation from reality is one that Alex has immersed himself in once too many times. He has daydreamed himself unwittingly into the strange world of Intersticia, a world outside of ordinary time that exists in the slender intervals between instants. At first it seems that he alone is free to wander these hushed streets with their motionless cars and people. But he is not alone. Alex soon discovers that he shares this world with others and that he has a rare power with the potential to change future, past and present."

I'd like to think that the premise for this is an unique one but I know I'm far from unique in making that claim and I'd be happy to be told otherwise if anyone knows better.

Anyway, if you think this sounds interesting and you'd like to read/review my book it's presently free to download from popular internet sources.

If you could post your reviews on Goodreads, Amazon, Facebook and Barnes & Noble I would be very grateful.
