It's Good but not Real Good

Aw gees aw gees, how do I feel about this? It was good? But kinda not? If you think the bomb is the drama it's not very good, but as a melodrama...it's motivating? The end is good. The very end is very good.

Review of 'Firstborn (A Time Odyssey)' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

Honestly picked the books at the wrong time. My news-feeds are full of people struggling to overcome great adversaries, the outcomes of which battles will have impact for the entire World, so turns out in fiction that's not what I want at the moment. There was nothing that I would love as an idea, no characters that I would find interesting. Felt like a really solid trilogy, but one that I picked up at the wrong time.
