I've sampled some of the free download of the book, and I do agree with this well written review that the book is poetically written, and well made. I may not read the whole book due to the inclusion of homosexuality and profanity, and I'm thankful that was mentioned in this review.

Time travel is quite the alluring theme! It was helpful to read about the author's ability to capture and hold your interest. It sounds like an amazing book that comes together in the end. Thanks for the intriguing recommendation. I look forward to reading this one.

I do enjoy time travel books, as the books always see things from a different perspective. This was not an exception. Great book

I know the review is not supposed to give spoilers but, I wish the reviewer could have said a little more on what is contained in the book. The only thing I gathered is that, there is time-travelling and less sci-fi and fantasy. Well, time-travel intrigues me a bit so I might give this book a shot.

Awesome! I love books with strange narrative techniques that keep you on your toes. This sounds wonderful, especially the humble gardener narrator. The concept seems so charming and interesting. Great review!

Time travel is a concept that I have a hard time wrapping my head around. This seems like an interesting read. Congrats on BOTD!

I think even tho it can be read as a standalone, I think still wouldn't want to read it unless I read the first book.

It's rare to see a time travel story whose focus is on the characters rather than the elements; I'm therefore interested in looking into this one further.

Beautifully written and professionally edited, today's BOTD is Book 2 in the series The Wheel of Eight. Although this can be read as a standalone, it sounds like fans of time travel novels will also want to pick up Book 1, as it is one they will thoroughly enjoy. Thanks for your review! :-)

This is a poetically written contemporary fiction with some elements of fantasy and sci-fi. I love that an introverted character like Damon is portrayed in a wonderful light. There's so much events that happened in his life that I couldn't put the book down. Congrats on BOTD!

"Whatever you think happens, does not happen. What you think doesn’t happen, does happen." Perhaps this is the point of Aaron D Key's book on time travel. Your review has captured the spirit of the book so well. Congratulations on the BOTD!

Damon Ich by Aaron D. Key seems to be a good contemporary fiction with the elements of sci-fi and fantasy. The writing is poetic and I would like to continue reading. I am a patient reader and I very much like to know how everything unfolds in the end. The characters sound interesting. Congrats on BOTD!

I have read Herai and liked the fantasy of alternative reality around which the author loves to revolve the story, and those intriguing elements move this story.

This book is so unique. I've never came across a book like this. It has so many elements that are properly balanced throughout. It's very unpredictable and enthralling.

It is interesting to know that the plot and events can't easily be predicted. This is an awesome review.
