Title: 'Made for Screenplay' book with 1-dimensional characters
Review: Wait for the movie - that is all that this excuse for a book was written for.MC takes a reasonable attempt at a story line (dubious science allows timetravel - historians get to travel back to a site in medieval France they have been working and get to take part in a battle before returning to the present in the nick of time) then absolutely fails to develop any realistic characters. The 'science' is aimed squarely at the chronically uneducated and although he has obviously researched medieval France fairly well (looking at the biography), he fails to transform this into anything compelling.If you want a book that blends science with history - try Cryptonomicon by Stevens.
