Like most Sci Fi readers, I like a good time-travel story, but I was at times I am not sure if the method of telling this story got in the way of the story itself. As far as the writing style goes, I think readers will either find it luscious or over-the-top and I am vacillating between the two. There definitely seems like additional line, but more importantly, content editing would have helped streamline the telling of the tale a bit (some details and phrases are repeated more than necessary). I read this story faster than I normally would just so I would skip over these challenges and appreciate the story as a whole. Maybe other readers will have a different perspective.
