’m not sure I was the correct demographic for this book but having said that it did redeem itself a little for me towards the end essentially where it took a more serious tone.
The basic premise of bringing back people through time travel from various points in history is a good starting point however I think this book tried to include too much. I found the first half of the book flitting all over the place and confusing. At attempt at humour came across as forced and flippant. But there is a good story here and I would certainly recommend to give it a go.
