This review is from: The Time Dissolver (Paperback)
In THE TIME DISSOLVERS, Jerry Sohl posits an interesting premise: a scientist wakes up in a motel with a strange woman and he has no idea who she is. Now there have been plenty of times in real life that a man has gone off on a bender to wind up in a similar situation but here, the scientist soon discovers that his memories for the last eleven years have been erased, leaving him with no choice but to follow a slim trail of clues that he hopes will lead him to his missing identity. The beginning of the novel is powerful and smacks of what Hitchcock might have done. The blurbs on the back cover hail THE TIME DISSOLVERS as a science fiction thriller although it is closer to the medical techno genre of Robin Cook. As the reader accompanies the scientist on the hunt for a lost identity, the plot dissolves into a series of uninteresting byzantine pathways that by the end leaves one to speed read the last few pages hoping for a more dramatic or at least a believable ending. This did not occur so I give the novel a modest two stars.
