About This Audiobook

1982 is a pulsating blend of time-travel sci-fi and '80s rock 'n' roll that'll have you air-guitaring along. Wendy Wood, our heroine, is a force to be reckoned with, her voice as powerful as the time-loop she's trapped in. Narrator Peter J. Matthews brings Wendy's gutsy vocals to life, while the production team deserves a standing ovation for weaving in authentic '80s music that'll transport you back to the decade. This isn't your typical time-travel tale; it's a high-energy, nostalgia-fueled ride that's as distinctive as Wendy's leather jacket.

Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

I've listened to my fair share of time-travel audiobooks, but 1982 is in a league of its own. Peter J. Matthews absolutely nails Wendy's voice, capturing her raw emotion and sass with every note. The way he transitions between Wendy's '80s Oxford and her present-day life is seamless, keeping the story's dual timelines from becoming a muddy mess. The pacing is spot-on, too, building tension as Wendy races against time to save her band and herself. My only critique? I wanted more from the supporting characters; they felt a bit one-dimensional at times. But that's a minor gripe in an otherwise stellar listen. If you're craving a unique blend of sci-fi, time-travel, and '80s rock, look no further than 1982.
