I'm not sure why no one ever put me on to this when I was a child, I'm sure I'd have adored it. Without any nostalgia attached, it didn't quite do enough for me, but obviously I am no longer its target. I admire that it has a strong and thoughtful heroine, who sometimes struggles with being good. I ...

I had toted the other three Time Quartet books with me with the intention of finishing them all. So I must ha...

What can I say: I knew it was a children's book, from a christian perspective on top of it. I don't know why I expected to really like it. Without spoiling anything precisely, let's just say: Jesus + science + individualism against darkness and communism. Which is funny because I never saw anti-conf...
