Simply gripping.

I still remember the day I got the book from the neighbour’s. Never quite having been a fan of crichton I did’nt expect much from the book . But , oh my, I had never been quite so wrong in my life.


Started ’Timeline’ at around 10 pm , I could simply not put it down till 4 am in the morning and I sure did’nt regret the loss of sleep.


The magic of the book is the captivating story. It incredibly blurs the fine line separating fact and fiction so much so that I actually found myself questioning my own physics knowledge.


Some people who do not have a particularly strong science background may tend to find the first few chapters a bit tedious but the fast paced , thrilling story compensates for it.


In the book the protagonist and his comrades go in search of their lost professor and rescue him against all odds ranging from the irate tycoon to the medieval era kings and knights.


Cunning queens , fierce and thrilling jousting matches and a final twist in the tale make the book attractive to a wide gamut of readers.


This is one book that must be on the shelves of all book readers.
