Title: Limits to Imagination
Review: In Michael Crichton's latest work, Timeline the writer deals with the complicated subject of time travel. The mechanism used for time travel though vaguely explained is sufficient for the story. What I found very hard to fathom were the scenes of conflict. Crichton explains early on that soldiers in this time period were very skilled in the art of battle and yet whenever a conflict arose with our scholastic heroes, the scene resembled a three stooges routine, bumbling guards and near misses and always the heroes developing incredible abilities, capture and escape over and over. Another irritating subject was the use of modern day technology, it was used only when it helped the plot along, but was forgotten when it could have been used to avoid precarious situations. I'm afraid that these flaws really took away from the flow of the novel. P.S. In the description of a potential love interest, was it necessary to use the phrase "handsome Knight" seven times in one page?
