Customer Reviews

the best

This series, of which this is the second book, is one of the most memorable I've ever read (3 times now). The concept of going back in time to create the present is exceptionally well done - the David Gemmel Jon Shannow novels have a similar concept. The idea that our mythology is based on past cycles of earth time is also very well done. It's a pity this volume (Time's Dark Laughter) was left on a flight to Perth and that it is now out of print.

It is a shame this book is so hard to find.

This was one of the three best books I have ever read. The characters were engaging, and the plot was so thick that once I picked this book up, it was not possible to put it down. If you're looking for a book so good that you will stay up all night reading, this is it!
