It's better now. Now that I understand what's going on, what he's setting up. Telling us about the past, then the now, then the past again, etc.
One thing irks me about Goodreads and Kindle: sometimes they don't show when I highlight something that I want to share. It says here "1 note & 1 highlight" but when I click on that it only shows one thing, not two. Why?!

I don't remember the author using so many big words in the other "Childrem of Time" books. But it's been a while since I've read them so maybe that's his normal style for this series? I dunno but it's hard to read when I have to look up words all the time. And I have a 4-year college degree! I know some big words but I guess not all these sciency big words.

Perfect timing! I just finished a book and this one came out.
However, I started reading it expecting the usual Tchaikovsky goodness and I'm bored, my mind wanders and I have to re-read sections. Yikes, what happened?
