THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT AND THIS ONE IS GREAT FUN!, July 18, 2006
This review is from: The Girl, the Gold Watch and Everything (Mass Market Paperback)
As another reviewer put it, this is quite different from other works by McDonald. You could almost call it a SiFi story, but it does not have that complete favor. Briefly, our hero finds himself with a watch that can slow time down to almost a complete stop. No spoiler here, so I will stop. The book is funny, a page turner and one that you will no doubt want to give a reread. I first encountered this one back in the 80s and it had been published for sometime before that. Once it is started, it is was and is quite difficult to put down. I have read other McDonald books over the years and was very surprised with this one..it was so very, very different. For a fun read, one you almost cannot help but enjoy, I recommened this one highly. This is another of those books that have sort of gotten forgotten and probably did not get the attention it should have at the time of it's publication.
