Once More, A Fun Book,
By
This review is from: Warrior (Isaac Asimov's Robots in Time) (Paperback)
This is the next installment in William Wu's Robots in Time series, and like all of the others, it is a bit inaccurate, but really fun. This time, Hunter and his companions go to Roman Germany in the middle of a German rebellion against their Roman conquerors. For the first time, though, we get a better idea of what Dr. Nystrom is like. He is a monomaniacal, paranoid delusional, schizophrenic. Convinced that his creations will be taken away and that he will never have a chance to examine them fairly (the other roboticists are out to get him, don't ya know), any compromise is unacceptable to him. Ergo, he is willing to kidnap, lie, steal, and cheat in order to capture the MC gestalt robots. Like the others, this novel is best for a precocious, young teenager. The history is fairly well researched, and it makes for an interesting and dramatic backdrop to the story. This book also has the added value of watching Steve get frustrated and upset with Jane, since a young Roman Legionnaire (what the author, unfortunately, keeps referring to as legionaries) is trying to woo her and she is obviously smitten by his war-like skills. This, of course, precipitates some jealousy and stupid behavior by team-members (not as bad as Rita in the second book, though). All told, a worthwhile book. Fun to read, you'll probably read it more than once, so it is a good investment. I recommend it.

Bought a couple of the series to complete my set. If you like Time-Travel and Robotics, This series will meet the bill.
