I love this book! So much that I thought about it for 20 years!
This book and the sequel have been in my mind for the last 20 years. I'm so glad I found it again. The re-read was great! It stands the test of time, which is fitting since time is an important factor in both books. Can't wait to read the sequel again. I'll never lose sight of them again!!!
