Very Good; time travel with good writing.

This sequel to Time and Again wasn‘t as compelling as the original story was. This time around, Si, the same main character in the original, time-travels to 1912 New York City. Not on a whim, of course, although he has his own motives for doing so.

It started out strong, but became weaker as I continued to read. I wonder if this would have been a stronger book if it had been written/published sooner after the original -- as it was, they were out about 20 years apart. ( )

Strange, somewhat forced, good story with immense detail in the oddest sometimes unnecessary places. Kind of saw the end coming...though the rationale did not really match the flow of other time altering events presented earlier. Glad to have read it though! ( )

This sequel to Time and Again was published 25 years after the original, and while it does have the same characters, it does not possess the same intensity and drive as the first book. Simon does time travel, and again meets with Rube. The purpose? To save the man who maybe could have stopped The Great War. But Rube also gives Si additional incentive. And if that isn’t interesting enough, why not add in the great ship, The Titanic? With all this going on, and with the wonderful characters developed in the first book, this sequel should have been a knockout, but alas, it is not. It bogs down in the middle, before it finally comes back to life at the very end. Real fans of first book will probably enjoy this one, too, but will likely be disappointed in its comparison to the first. ( )

More compelling than Time and Again. He made me love New York in 1911 and made a great argument for the happiness and contentment that abounded in pre-war America. Such a shame that he died in 1995. This book cried out for a sequel as he left the door wide open on a couple of threads of the story. ( )
