I'm going to take a looser definition of this month's category and expand it to Time Travel/Adventure. I'll nominate Timeline by Michael Crichton. It is 4th on Goodreads Best Time Travel Fiction listopia (as opposed to non-fiction, ha!) and is listed as both Time Travel and Adventure.

Description from Goodreads:
Quote:
In an Arizona desert, a man wanders in a daze, speaking words that make no sense. Within twenty-four hours he is dead, his body swiftly cremated by his only known associates. Halfway around the world, archaeologists make a shocking discovery at a medieval site. Suddenly they are swept off to the headquarters of a secretive multinational corporation that has developed an astounding technology. Now this group is about to get a chance not to study the past but to enter it. And with history opened up to the present, the dead awakened to the living, these men and women will soon find themselves fighting for their very survival -- six hundred years ago.
