This book is a science fiction. It is engaging to readers of such. Thanks for the review.

Sounds like a whole lot of characters to keep track of. The drawings would have been helpful also. This is not my genre, but thanks for the review.

This sounds like a Sci/Fi book that I could get into, although I don't like books generally that end on a cliffhanger. Thanks for a wonderful review!

Other books in this series have been BOTD, so I'm convinced it's a good series. However, sci-fi generally isn't for me and I'm not a fan of graphic sex scenes. Thanks for an honest review!

The title is 30th Century but a vision of the fiftieth is presented. So I suppose something decisive will happen in the 30th to prevent the disaster in the vision of the fiftieth. The book sounds like fun, although I will probably skip the three and foursome sex scenes. Ingeniosity and vivid imagination will win me every time.
Thank you for the great review.

I have read and reviewed the first book in this series and I enjoyed it very much. It sounds like a lot has happened in the books to follow, particularly this book. I do not usually enjoy stories of time travel mainly because I regard it as impossible, but these books certainly seem to make the idea attractive. The author writes well and I enjoy his knowledge of a variety of different subjects, including physics. Unfortunately I also feel that humans who will live in an advanced society so far into the future, will be beyond our understanding. Nevertheless the books are entertaining as is your review, which I enjoyed.

Having read the first part of this book I can really agree to the fact that the author is really creative carrying the story from one century to another without mixing it up. Though the sex scenes were just too much for me. As much as the book is really interesting I don’t think I can read anymore of it. Thanks for the review.

Final part of series, so I believe I will have to read it for some kinda closure even though I was somewhat dissatisfied with how precious books turned out. Will see if "grand finale" makes me change my mind about whole series.

I've read the first book and I'm glad that this installment sounds much more well-developed than the first one. Great job with the review.

Sex with threesomes and foursomes is quite difficult to digest. The reasons given for this, is also baffling. Thanks a lot for the review.

I like a bit of sci-fi, but am wary about picking this book up in case I’m either grossed out by the sex scenes (if done right, I like them, but often there’s something about them that annoys me or disgusts me!) or in case I can’t follow the plot.

The plot of the book is intriguing. I'd definitely want to start with the first book in the series. The sex scenes are a bit much for my liking though.

I'm glad this book can be read as a standalone! I still haven't read the others and the plot sounds very interesting. I'm a twin and always love to read stories with twins as characters. Add to it that it is a time travel fantasy with lots of creativity and I'm intrigued!

I love how this book discusses what planet Earth looks like in this book's setting. When I have read other sci-fi books, these small details seemed to be lacking. Thank you for including this in your review.

I will have to give this one a read sometime! The graphic sex scenes would not bother me and personally, I find that I may enjoy the book more because of it.

I enjoyed reading your review, Bluebird03. I agreed with it, too. I also found the conversations between characters rather stilted. I think, because there were no contractions. If there'd been contractions, I think it would have flowed better and sounded more normal.

Glad to know that you were able to jump right into the midst of the series. This isn't a genre I typically read, so I don't know that I'd want to go back to read the first two in the series, but I will say that the excerpt I read on Amazon really grabbed my interest and made me want to read THIS book. LOL I mean, we're talking time travel! What's not to like??

I did stumble a bit over twin sisters being named Jennifer and Jenny. Seriously? Jennifer and Jenny? But as this is the third book in the series, I guess it's too late to tweak that.

All that said, the world building was intriguing. I love the idea of going back in time and, with all this knowledge, building a new life in the 21st century. I want to read this book now! Again, thanks for a well-written review. I enjoyed reading it after I read the excerpt.
