4.0 out of 5 stars A wild ride that never ends!, January 19, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
You can't go into this story expecting everything to make sense. The situations that arise by happenstance are incredible; the characters' reactions to events pretty ridiculous. In this case however, it only serves to make the story more entertaining and hilarious. If you want a fast-paced book that grabs you and never lets go, all the while creating a unique setting and breaking the accepted norm of the genre, you won't be disappointed.

Didn't like how moody the protagonist was, but he overall he was fairly agreeable. I also preferred the direction shown in The Eye of Icarus, from the followup series, though this one was decent, especially considering the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Avid reader from Florence, SC, April 10, 2004

This review is from: Fractured Time (Hardcover)
I thoroughly enjoyed Fractured Time. The characters were very interesting and the blend of humor, horror and adventure made the story quite a ride. It's good to see that science fiction is becoming fun again. I think the portrayal of female characters was very real in comparison to women in today's world. The friction between the men and women was both comical and challenging.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Book!, April 6, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Fractured Time (Hardcover)
This is definately one of the best books of I have read in quite some time. Fractured Time started off a little on the slow side, but once it picked up it was non-stop action and I couldn't put the book down until I had finished it. There was something for everyone in this book, comedy, romance, science fiction, action, adventure, and some horror. Fractured Time was, in my opinion, very well written and I can't wait to read the second and third books in the trilogy. If you're a fan of action/adventure and/or science-fiction, then this is a must read book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Show me the movie!!, April 16, 2004
This review is from: Fractured Time (Hardcover)
I picked up a copy of FT at the Virginia Book Festival even though I read Mr. Scifres scathing comments. I thoroughly enjoyed the story so much, I purchased the second book, Twisted Fate. The author did a great job portraying the female characters in relation to what women are really like. Once the action started, I couldn't stop reading. Mr. Scifres, I see, writes about Texas agriculture. Perhaps that is why he was so glum about FT. I think everyone should take a chance on this one. I can't wait for the movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars In The Twist of Time, January 20, 2003
This review is from: Fractured Time (Hardcover)
In Michael D'Ambrosio's Fractured Time puts some new twists on an old plot. The future and the past collide as a catastrophic twisting of time racks the earth. Billy Brock and the other passengers of US Air Flight 637 find themselves in a strange new world full of more danger than they would have thought possible. Encounters with savage Neanderthals and fearsome dinosaurs only adds to the new challenges facing the terrified passengers. Billy's brave new world also holds more personal dangers as he wrestles with deep feelings toward one of the female survivors. Action and adventure in a definitely fast paced story of time turned inside out and twisted for effect.

1.0 out of 5 stars gawd awful, November 8, 2003
By 
Charles A Scifres (Lake in the Hills, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fractured Time (Hardcover)
This is quite possibly the worst book I have ever read. It is poorly written, the language is awkward and uninspired. The characters are ridiculous. The author wants us to believe that a woman who's whole world has been turned upside down is wholely consumed not by her situation, but rather, whether or not the guy she just met loved her as much as she loved him. I was initially drawn to the plot of the book but the story is so poorly told I couldn't even finish it. Buyer beware, this book is awful.
