About this listen

When you discover the world is a computer program, and you figure out that by altering the code you can time travel and perform acts that seem like magic, what can possibly go wrong?

Pretty much everything.

Just ask Brit, who has jumped around in time with such abandon that she has to coexist with multiple versions of herself. Now, Brit the Elder finds that her memories don't match Brit the Younger's. And there's the small matter of a glitch that's making Brit the Elder's body fritz out. Brit the Elder's ex-boyfriend Phillip wants to help her, but he'll have to keep it secret from his current girlfriend, Brit the Younger, who can't stand her future self.

Meanwhile, Martin is trying to protect Phillip from a relentless attacker he somehow hasn't noticed; Gwen is angry because Martin accidentally proposed to her; Gary tries to help the less fortunate, with predictably disastrous results; and an old nemesis might have to be the one to save them all.

In Out of Spite, Out of Mind, our fearless wizards discover the biggest glitch in their world's program may well be themselves.

story progresses well with excellent character development. author's take on time travel and the complications it can generate create a wonderful, funny and exciting stage for the characters to shine in.

the only downside to this story is the character Brit. the way she acts and interacts with other characters was really off putting and made this book the worst in the series for myself. she is standoffish and self-righteous and the selfishness she shows later in the book brought my mood and enjoyment down.

despite the issues I am looking forward to the next installment and hoping that the more fun loving characters are brought to the forefront.

excellent story but worst book of the series

Loved this story from start to finish, The previous book lost its way a bit but this one is back to its best and I hope there’s many more to come.

I really love this series of books even though the plot sometimes gets a bit confusing!! But that’s time travel I suppose!! The ending suggests another book in the pipeline?

Very good again but a lirtke mind confusing though I still enjoyed it a lot and would recommend all of these books

Confusing but still good

This is the book that was needed after the more timid books three and four.

It feels back to the roots of the series and opens the door to more adventures to look forward to.

Great stuff!

Back to form

Not as good as previous books. An apparent glitch in the program threatens to wreak havoc amongst the wizards in this book. It's entertaining, but too much time travel/ multiple iterations of people and cries of "I'm doing it because I saw myself do it before". It's not quite clever enough to play with the twists of time travel, but it's a decent enough story within it's world

acceptable fun

" Another great listen, but slow in places- yet a good narrator keeps it interesting. Really nice storyline, very funny like all the other books in the Magic 2.0 series! "

" Another Great Listen "

Just as much fun as the other 4 books, gets a little confusing with even more Brits, and a twist in the relationships that I wasn’t actually happy with but it served the story.

Overall another great read in the magic 2.0 saga and I love the musical and movie references sprinkled throughout in this one.

Confusing at times but just as much fun!
