Title: Opportunity Lost
Review: I started this book 3 years ago and put it down because the dialog and the slow pace was not what I was looking for at that point. I started it again this week and finished it. I still think the authors could have cut out about 150 pages and not lost anything.The book does deliver some interesting alternate history ideas. The new roles of historical figures kept me reading. I felt as though the authors had a great setting for this book and ample opportunity but somehow chose the dullest story line possible.Although I read the book fairly carefully and understand much of the underlying message, I still get the impression that the authors meant for me to see more than what I did. If they did, I didn't get it because the execution of the story was just so monotonous it was distracting. I would have to read the book again to better understand the ending. I think I'll wait another few years.
Is the review positive or negative?
