2.0 out of 5 stars
One book too many,
By DPWally "dpwally" (Brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paradox Gate: Book Three of THE GATES OF TIME (Gates of Time Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)
Number two of a trilogy is usually weaker than number one, but often the third installment reaches new heights. Not this time, the author should have stopped at two.The time travel theory, invented in "The Whispers" and expanded in "Faces of Infinity", is scrambled to poetic incoherence in "Paradox Gate". The pseudo-science of the first two books is no longer consistent, so I revoke poetic license. To his credit, the author makes it clear that none of the characters fully understand the revised theory, though that doesn't stop them from explaining it to each other in great detail. The plot is nonsensical. The characters, never a strong point in this series, have deteriorated further - primarily because the author has finally made an attempt to flesh them out. Nevertheless, I recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed the first two. It continues a narrative that remains intriguing and presents additional amusing anomolies. |
