I loved writing this book. I loved slipping back into Ringo's thoughts, figuring out what he felt, how he saw the world, and delving deeper into who he was. Out of Time contains all the new 10th Anniversary epilogues in one book, then adds the story of Ringo and Charlie's beginnings in London that begin right after Saira leaves and Archer slinks back into the night.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it.8 s Nikki236 6

I was given the pleasure of this book early and I can say with all confidence it’s the Ringo story we’ve all been hoping for. A brilliant collection of epilogues that create their own unique story when read as one complete book. If you’ve already read the IMMORTAL DESCENDANTS series (*absolutely* read the series because it’s magnificent), this is the perfect chance to see what happens during the time between Cheating Death and the start of the Baker Street Mysteries (An Urchin of Means, my favorite April White book to date). The love story between Ringo and Charlie is timeless, with every page turn I just didn’t want it to end. This truly is a gift to all us readers to celebrate the 10th anniversary of this remarkable series.2 s Megan305

This book was a compilation of all the new epilogues from the 10th anniversary editions plus a new short story about Ringo and Charlie. The new story is the perfect bridge between this series and the next. audiobooks favorites2 s Lenore Kosinski2,386 63

5 stars — Since I’d read the box set of the first 3 books and they weren’t updated with the new epilogues, this was the first time I was able to read them. I kind of loved getting a Ringo-related summary and then getting to see the epilogues in a row that, it really showed the progression of Ringo and Charlie’s relationship. I loved seeing them form that tentative connection and understand that they had both been fundamentally changed right from the first book. I loved how Ringo learned those lessons of made family, and connection, and applied them in his own life. I loved that their relationship wasn’t perfect and infallible, but had to grow just as Archer and Saira’s did. I loved that while I adored Ringo, he wasn’t perfect either and he was soooo young when it all started.

And I absolutely adored refreshing my memory of their wedding, and seeing the set up for their life together back in their original time stream. And even having already read Mrs. Mac’s story in Pride Not Prejudice, I absolutely adored seeing this first meeting with her. She was just PERFECT for them.

And now I am absolutely THRILLED to start their own spin off series. I mean seriously, who doesn’t need more Ringo and Charlie in their lives?buddy-read kindle1 Marja Coons-Torn137 12

I was delighted to see a new offering come along in April White’s Immortal Descendants historical time-travel fantasy series. The five books came out starting a number of years ago, before the current craze for time-travel novels of every shape. Perhaps White had something to do with that craze (which continues unabated). She quickly explains, however, that Out of Time is not so much a new novel in the series as it is a collection of short-stories, updating the characters. For that reason, it probably wouldn’t make sense to read unless you have read the original series.
Now would be a good time to begin the Immortal Descendants, or to reread them if you read them when they were published. That’s because the author has taken the time to re-edit each of the five books, making corrections but also adding new material. I myself am planning to do that. I enjoyed the storyline immensely when I first read them. I don’t usually reread books, but I am interested to see what White has done with her own material. I hope my aging brain will be able to discern the changes. By the way, if you own the books on Kindle, you don’t have to buy them again to get the changes. Just go to Manage Your Content and Devices on Amazon. When you bring up the titles, it will tell you there is an update, and so you just click on that. It only takes a few seconds.
If you have read the series, then you will also want to read An Urchin of Means and Death’s Door. If you have read those, by all means pick up Out of Time. If you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited, you can find it there. Or it’s only $2.99 to buy the Kindle version or $6.99 for the paperback. Jes565

Perfectly Wonderful

This book is the literary equivalent of visiting friends while in front of a cozy fire, with a mug full of hot cocoa (or your preferred fireside drink), and a conversation full of catching up on what you’ve missed, remembering the fun you’ve had, laughing with relish, and shedding a tear because even the best times must come to an end. The best part is that Ringo and Charlie’s stories will continue so this little interlude is the perfect way to revisit them in the meantime. Alison59

Hope at last

Ringo is, and has been, my favorite character in The Immortal Descendants series. This is a glimpse of seeing the stories through his eyes, as well as Charlie's, and it is so lovely. I've read his and Charlie's first book, An Urchin of Means, and have been waiting, quite impatiently, for the next one. The Audible version read by William M. Watt is as wonderful as Ms. White says it is. Hazel Worden36

Not a real story as much as a recap of the series

I would recommend you re-read the full series, before spending your money on this. disd the fact, it felt I was reading extracts from the previous series of books. I love Ringo and Charlie, and am a fan of April Whites writing. I was expecting to read a full story about the two of them, not extracts the publisher has thrown together. sorry I paid for this.

Satisfying

Having read the Immortal Descendants books before the addition of these lovely epilogues and very much enjoying them, it's lovely to have this additional bit that gives more context from different points of view and wonderfully fills out the story. It also makes me hungry for more Urchin of Means books, so I'm quite excited to know that the second one will be releasing soon. Angela Whitmore427

Tying up the loose ends

Having read the Immortal Descendents series several years ago, I found this little book of Ringo and Charlie-centred epilogues followed by their steps into married life in the 1800s is exactly what was needed to bridge the gap over to An Urchin of Means. And it clears up a previous gripe so I may have to now go back and update an old review. Thank you April for your ever excellent writing. Cicilia9 1 follower

Pure joy

The immortal descendants series has always felt coming home to me. This is no exception. It is pure serotonin and love and all the good things. Thank you for publishing these cozy little bites, and for Mrs. Mac. She is important. Samantha Glass947 7

Loved this! A perfect rainy day accompaniment. Such a treat to spend time with this lovely crew and to gain new perspectives on what else was happening in the books. April White’s characters create a family all their own and this book felt a lovely visit with them. Janeen AbdoAuthor 14 books19

Great change of view in filling in the blanks

Going back and hearing Ringo and Charlie falling in was awesome. I love this series and will most ly read it again. I look forward to more of Ringo's journeys. Cindy Fong1,771

I love Ringo so much

What a fun addition to the Immortal Descendants series. I have always wanted Ringo's point of view of all that was going on in each of the books and this introspection gave us more of the relationship with Charlie. It made my heart happy. Karl Hakimian473 3
