Time's Convert by Deborah Harkness

I really enjoyed the All Souls trilogy, and was excited to read this. Unfortunately, where the history adds context and depth to the story and characters in All Souls, it is given too much prominence in this book - almost as though the story is there to support a lesson about history rather than the other way around. I might have enjoyed this more as a series of short stories.
If you love history and you lived the All Souls trilogy, this could still be a good read. But if you have only a passing interest in the history of the American and French revolutions, this might be a book to de-prioritise in your TBR pile.
