Time Runners

Time Runners: Wipe Out

Rate this book
Jamie and Anna are Time Runners—they keep history moving in the right direction. Their latest mission takes them to Britain in the 1950s, during the Cold War—when Anna was from before she fell through the cracks in time. But something's terribly wrong. Why is a Russian spy attending a dinner party held by the man in charge of Britain's nuclear development? Why is a ghostly image of Anna being dragged away by grotesque imp-like creatures? Why does the mysterious Mr. Prophecy never leave his room? And why is there a corridor reaching back through time hidden in the cellar? If Jamie and Anna don't find out quickly, it could be too late. It could be the end of the world.

Đến tập cuối thì sự kiên nhẫn của mình mới được đền đáp nên 4* liền.

Cốt truyện đã mạch lạc, dồn dập và xoắn não hơn rất nhiều so với 3 tập trước, đủ để mình rút ra một kết luận. Đó là đừng bao giờ đọc sách liên quan đến chủ đề thời gian khi chưa sẵn sàng hoặc khi đang tụt đường huyết vì đói. Không nổ não thì cũng làm mắt mỏi tay chân bủn rủn vì cứ phải lật đi lật lại các trang để xem logic không, và “lật” luôn cả cái óc để xâu chuỗi sự kiện đã được đề cập, nhớ sự kiện nào xảy ra trước cái nào xảy ra sau cái nào liên kết cái nào. Coi phim về du hành thời gian trực quan sinh động như vậy đã xoắn não lắm rồi, đừng nói tới việc vừa đọc vừa tưởng tượng.

Sci-fi young adult nên truyện không giật gân lắm, tàng tàng đọc chơi cho dzui. Tưởng chơi chơi ai dè nó bào não đau hết cả đầu.

I'll be honest I don't know if this is all on the author or if I wasn't paying enough attention throughout the series, but to me it seems that the time control the 'Runners' have was a lot more strict at the beginning of the series, and now they seem to do whatever without consequences? I could not tell you what is going on, I do not understand the rules at play here.
