Reviews

[Eric · Rating 2 out of 5]

A fairly sub-standard sci-fi story built around the concepts of time travel and multiple universes. Starts out ok, then devolves into a confusing mishmash of personal histories and unexplained motives.

[Ian · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another gread sci-fi pick. Along the lines of a Clarke story, its a good read for chilly rainy nights

[Bradley · Rating 3 out of 5]

Somewhat entertaining sci-fi tale. Listia bait. =)

[Charles · Rating 3 out of 5]

A time travel novel and I'm just not that big on the genre. It was well written but it didn't light me on fire.

[Carmine Apra']

Still without a rating, because I didn't understand if it's a real masterpiece or not. I think I'll read it again to find it out.
