    Just finished this, on recommendation from this thread.


    I liked it, by the end.  I do admit to not loving the Cause And Effect (TNG!) type of storytelling when it comes to time travel stories but I stuck with it, and it paid off.  (Much like Cause And Effect)
    Good book!

    I loved that book. You might have gotten that recommendation from one of my posts. I have read a few more books by her as well. Interesting themes.

    On book 4, Age of Legend.
    Michael Sullivan.
    Very good series - the first three were page turners.
    2 more after this one....I like when the series is already done and you can binge read it 
    Waiting a year or two between books and forgetting so many plot points kinda sucks.
    This series would make a killer show.

    what age are these geared to? My daughter (15) loves fantasy, and reads at a pretty elevated level.

    Nothing too heavy - they are not Young Adult targeted but she could certainly read them w/o issue.  Thematically...they have a focus on strong women characters (which might be a bonus for women reading) and if she likes High Fantasy she might enjoy.
    Likely worth the $10 on Amazon to find out with the first book.  (Although that might be more in Canada)

    Also, at around 400 pages each they are short reads, for the genre.  She might love the 1000+ page books but many are put off by that.

    :lol:.  Let us know if you admire her writing as much as her ballsy approach to life

    Not very far into,but good so far.
    If there is one thing the main character knows is that a women's sexuality is directly related to the size of her areola.

    This autobiography is going to rank up there with one of the best music bios I've come across.  Really, really good!
