Customer Reviews

time travel

Enjoyed this travel back and forth through time and lands with Tom who has a genetic disorder that causes him to age extremely slowly.

Over hyped

Main character and his daughter were annoyingly self-righteous and all the cussing didn't really seem necessary. Trump hate even though the author is from the UK. (Write about your own politics???) Virtue signaling with a random gay character that's mentioned in one chapter for one paragraph and is never mentioned again. It's like authors nowadays have a "politically correct" checklist. The actual story concept was refreshing and interesting, but the points aforementioned ruined the atmosphere.

Interesting concept

I liked the concept. Character were well-rounded and well-written. Based on this book, I've added another Matt Haig book to my wishlist.
