"Ellis Rogers is an ordinary man who is about to embark upon an extraordinary journey. All his life he has played it safe and done the right thing, but when diagnosed with a terminal illness, he's willing to take an insane gamble. He's built a time machine in his garage, and if it works, he'll face a world that challenges his understanding of what it means to be human, what it takes to love, and the cost of paradise. He could find more than the cure for his illness; he might find what everyone has been searching for since time began...but only if he can survive Hollow World"--back cover.

Nettes futuristisches Zivilisationskonzept

3 stars

Zeitfuge (engl. Hollow World) ein #Buch von Michael J. Sullivan.

Es geht um eine Zeitreise mit der Hoffnung auf Heilung einer schweren Krankheit in der Zukunft.

Die Zivilisationskonzepte 2000 Jahre in der Zukunft sind interessant gedacht. Leider insgesamt ein wenig untechnisch, insbesondere was Zeitreisen und deren Implikationen bedeuten. Hier sind zumindest nur Reisen in die Zukunft möglich.

Nette Unterhaltung für zwischendurch, aber nichts großartiges.

An optimistic outlook

5 stars

I think this book provides an optimistic utopian-kind of outlook on the future. I enjoyed reading it, it was a form of feel-good escapism.

Strangely Utopic.

It's been a long time since I've read Sci-Fi about a Utopia.
I'm so used to thinking about how things can go wrong that I'm a bit confused if they don't.
When so many possibilities are open, it is hard not to question the limitations imposed by the author.

I guess for me it was a bit too much Hadrian and too little Royce.

Not to say that I didn't enjoy the story.
Couldn't really put it down.

I was hoping that I'd like this book, but it was not meant to be. It started out well enough, but the story moved into a direction I just didn't like.
