Title: Transmission Errors Indeed!
Review: Mark Twain did this much better in A CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR'S COURT (itself derivative). It would seem that it is a great advantage to believe that literature must stand on its own merit, not on a future movie rendering. Alright, alright, Crichton is no Twain, but still I can see no excuse for issuing this shameless screenplay as a novel. I look for TIMELINE to appear on the Sci Fi Channel or perhaps HBO rather than as a major motion picture. But what do I know - no doubt Crichton made a bundle on the awful CONGO.
