This book was very different from anything I have ever read before. The first few chapters confused me exceedingly, but I stuck with it until I understood what the author was doing and how this was the only way the book could have been written to tell the story. I was also confused by the number of characters and almost needed a list of characters and what decade they lived in, to read each page. With all that said, I LIKED IT for it's storyline. It is a fantasy. It would make a good movie like "Somewhere in Time". The characters were well described, well written for how the story needed to be told. The author has a vivid imagination. My main dislike in the book was the "book within the book". It really threw me and was too preachy. I am sure the author had a reason for including this, but other than "filler", I never figured out what its purpose was. It was too similar to the story he was actually telling. A good quick read that takes some time getting thru and some persistence.
