Nicely written and while "technically" a time-travel book, I'd put it more into the "alternate history" camp if pressed. More about the world they live in and dealing with those results than the intricacies of time-loops (though there's some of that too).

But DANG it's big, so make sure you're into this sort of thing. On the plus side, very well written and generally broken into small chapters so the "bites" are easier to swallow.

If you like alternate history and time travel with all its complexities, then you will enjoy reading this book. The only minor drawback is its size - 750 pages. Not necessarily a leisurely read. You must keep your mind active throughout to really enjoy and understand the issues in changing history.

It was a little jumpy going from character to character - one of those books you have to pay attention to. Worth the read.
