Good but confusing
This was an interesting story (although if I have to read the words "tore through them like tissue paper" any time soon, I may scream) people from now (I think) are in France trying to cure plague. It's never made clear WHY though, and that's really frustrating. If you had the power to time travel, why on earth would you mess with past events and not just observe? The potential ramifications are mind-boggling. Also, if you WERE going to send people back, surely you'd have a ser ...more

I admit that I love time travel stories, but even those who don't should agree that this is rollicking good fun. ...more

Quite an epic piece of SYFi
A bit more background on the “Goodmen” would have enriched the novel...at least for me. Overall, I was quite pleased with the reading and the fact,in this age of serialization, it was a novel with both a beginning and an ending. I look forward to future works from the author.
