For it was a room fit for a king. It contained a huge bed in the center, what seemed like endless mirrors throughout, two separate showers, and a hot tub in the middle of the bathroom. Plus there was a window with an amazing view of a sun rising over a waterfall. Jack knew it was a hologram, but liked it none the less.You will find that the author has used the modern sense of the terms and expressed modern feeling through modern metaphors. You will find more instances in the novel which will keep you rolling between emotions of fear, love, hatred and sympathy.The story of struggling man is nicely portrayed in the novel.

I don’t want to spoil the story by telling you all about the story, let the suspense be suspense till you discover something which is more suspenseful than earlier one. The time machine concept has been brought alive once again in this novel. Hope you will also enjoy the novel.Shashikant Nishant Sharma
