Timeline by Michael Crichton

3.0

I have mixed feelings about this review. Parts like the concept and the historic flavour are on the 4/5 side of the scale, but the story itself seemed to drag on a bit long with repeated sword fights and close calls. And the eventual "end" seemed almost an after thought, as if Michael Crichton just ran out of steam. There were also hints at character development or a love story, but those never went anywhere. I liked the prologue though. Definitely a enjoyable read, and probably well suited to a holiday book list.
