Ahh, I've only read the sample but this was precisely the thought going through my mind while reading this scene! Thanks for this review! It helped me understand what to expect in the rest of the book.

Wow this book really seems to have it all. Fantasy, time travel, science fiction, and a dystopian society? All the genres I love mixed in one book. I also find the characters intriguing and wonder how Nija will fulfill his destiny. Great review!

I love time travel books, so I might enjoy this one, too. I haven't read the sample yet, therefore I don't know what to expect. The reviewer referenced "The Terminator," which is a movie I really like. Hopefully, this book won't disappoint. Thank you for the review.

I'm not a fan of SciFi but I think this is a book I could try out because the description and clear analysis is present, meaning I won't have a hard time understanding the context. Also, the book is an interesting one from the review, with likable characters whom we can relate to. I also think it would be amazing if it was turned into a movie or something there about. Great review!

The review gives me a vivid imagination about the characters and the plot. Time travel is a must-see topic for me, the title and the cover are eye-catching too.

It is a story about dictatorship, Utopia, and the long-term Resistance movement to eliminate the oppressors. At its heart, it is the history of humankind itself with all its never-ending struggles.

Wow. This story has a lot wrapped up in it! Time-travel and destinies and powerful thingamabobies... Woohoo!

This isn't my preferred style, but the strangeness of ancient times so much more advanced than modern times has me intrigued.

I would like to give a compliment to the reviewer, for the way she connects the story of the book to the larger issues, in the 'Official Review: The Quantum Cartographer, by Kristen Keenon Fisher.'

This sounds like a great adventure! Time travel is always a good subject to explore. Also, a pretty good review!

Were you intentionally confusing when referring to August?

I love books like this. They pull you in with adventure and action from the very beginning and leave you wanting more. Definitely putting this one on my wish list! Great Review.

I loved the sample. I think this is definitely a book I could get into.

Thanks for the review, this sounds very interesting. I always wonder why books about time travel are always set in the future with people going back. There does not seem to be much written in the past and having people come back and claim to be from the future. Great review!

I love sci-fi, but time travel stories and I don't usually get along. I'm sure lots of people will enjoy this one, but I don't think it's for me. Thanks for the thoughtful review!

I read the sample of the book and I was amazed at how appealing it was. Then I read this review and I was even more enticed. The cover is pretty, but it doesn't do this story justice at all. I just know that when I'm able to pick up a copy of this book, I'm going to love it a lot.

I do love science fiction, although time travel sometimes gives me a headache with the possibility of a paradox occurring. I'm also hesitant because it seems too much like Terminator to me, but it's also different enough that I'll give it a try. Thank you for the insightful review.
