This was an interesting read and it's the first for me to read time paradox and time travel since I mostly read YA. I would have given it a higher rating if it wasn't for the characters.

The plot was interesting and I enjoyed reading how Wildebear's actions with trying to fix everything just created a paradox instead. His powers to control the gate and taking him to other places and other living thing's consciousness was enjoyable too. The whole deal with the T'Klee and the Necronians is what sets the story going despite it being somewhat cliche but I really liked Jacques and what he had to go through.

As for the characters, I feel like most of them besides Wildebear, aren't fleshed out and are just there for plot convenience. Even Wildebear, despite being close to 40 years old, was childish most times and I didn't like the book as much because of him. He was easily irritable and was jealous over Sarah for nothing really and the whole point of the romance possibility was worthless. Jacques and Iugurtha are the only characters I liked and sometimes Dr. Humphrey.

Overall, the beginning of the story was good and the stuff happening was enjoyable despite Wildebear being such a bore.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with the digital copy for an honest review.

This was a little bizarre, and confusing at times, but fun. The author has a great imagination, which makes this highly unpredictable. Hitchhiker fans and similar types of book will probably enjoy.

I really appreciate the copy for review!!

I appreciate having had an opportunity to read and review this book. The appeal of this particular book was not evident to me, and if I cannot file a generally positive review I prefer simply to advise the publisher to that effect and file no review at all.
