“Asleep at the Wheel of Time” was a fascinating read! I’m not usually into time-travel stories, but Michael Gray’s exploration of time as a concept—rather than just a plot device—made this book stand out.

If you’re into philosophical fiction, you’ll love this one.
I’m still thinking about Asleep at the Wheel of Time days after finishing it. The way Michael Gray plays with time, memory, and consciousness is mind-bending.
