This review is from: The Time Connection (Mass Market Paperback)

I picked up 2 of Thomas F. Monteleon's works at half-priced books, sorta on a whim. They were only a dollar each, and looked interesting. The first one I read was "Guardian." Though that was well written and easy to read, the story got confusing and erratic...just didn't sit well with me. I kept putting off reading "The Time Connection" because of the ambivelent feelings I had towards "Guardian." Finally had nothing better to do, and read "The Time Connection"...I really had a good time with this one.

Basically, it's a story of a man and a woman who stumble (or perhaps are led), into our world... a thousand yrs. in the future.

There has been a cataclysmic war between humans and an alien race in this time, that seems to have led to the annihilation of the human race. It has also led to a "near" destruction of the aliens who attacked us.

But, not is all what it appears to be.

There appears to be unseen plans in motion. And the couple who have stumbled into this futuristic earth, unbeknownst to them, find themeselves pivotal to those plans.

Easy and fun book to read. I devoured it in one 3 hour sitting.

This was his second novel I believe, written in 1976. I guess it's probably pretty hard to find now. I'm glad I happened onto it. Would make a good movie.

Recommended.

By A Customer

This review is from: The Time Connection (Mass Market Paperback)

Were they alone on a mysterious Earth were run by all knowing computers adn manned by infallible robots?

Were they alone in a savage world where a monstrous race of alien killers hunted them down and chances of servival grew more slender with every terrifying contact?

Were they alone to carry out a vital mission on which the whole future of human history depended a mission they had to discover before time ran out?

Devin Wells and Marianne Cowens were plucked out of the 20th century and plunged into the strangest adventure and most momentous challenge a man and a woman could ever know...
