5.0 out of 5 stars
A realistic take on time travel that only Chalker could do.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Downtiming the Nightside (Mass Market Paperback)
What can I say other than if you are a Chalker fan, this book is a must. It appears as though it is a reprint of one of his earlier works. This is the most realistic look at time travel I have seen, (if time travel can be "realistic" at all)although Chalker manages to keep you glued to the pages, as he often does. The journeys of Moosic in this work are intriguing and fast moving. It is interesting to see how time allows us to think we can control it, only to be bound to obey its will in the end. This is the first book in a long while that it actually took up to the last page for me to say, "Oh yeah, now I get it!" You just gotta read this one folks!

The best time travel book I read,
This review is from: Downtiming the Nightside (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is great, a real exploration of some of the possibilities and implications of time travel. All kinds of good ideas other authors seem to have missed. The book is really intricate with the story twisting wildly, but it keeps you moving. Well worth the sliced tree its printed on.
5.0 out of 5 stars
My favorite time travel book,
By Jim Becker (Altamonte Springs, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Downtiming the Night Side (Mass Market Paperback)
I've read quite a lot of time travel, alternate history and multiple universe stories over the years. I quite enjoyed Simon Hawke's Time Wars series, but this book is my favorite. It is worth the read, but be sure to stay to the end, you don't want to miss a twist...
