Life II: An Unusual Title for a Unique and Interesting Book!
By Sandra Brazier VINE VOICE on July 25, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition
Forty-two-year-old Max Thorning is bored with his routine and unsatisfying life. Upon wandering through a used bookstore, he finds an unusual book that takes his mind off his discontent with his life. It is a book about time travel, but it does not make sense. Finally, finding a pattern within the book, he deciphers a coded message that directs him to an address in Athens, Greece. Thus begins Max's adventure of reliving the last 26 years of his life.This is a time travel book of sorts. However, it is not your ordinary time travel storyline. This one is very different. Max faces the restrictions of the Time Weaver, the alien device that sends him back to his sixteen-year-old self. These restrictions, and the manner in which the author, Scott Spotson writes, makes this story very real and one of a kind.Max wants to make his life better, to redo the decisions he had made in his first attempt at life, but does this work? Spotson's characters are very real and their reactions are as well. His characters and their interactions force the reader to wonder what she would do, given this same, imaginative opportunity.
This author has a way of writing that flows naturally and easily. Soon, the reader forgets she is reading and is whirled into the experience of Spotson's imaginary world. Beware: this book is impossible to put down. One wants to read and read to discover what will happen next. I highly recommend this intriguing novel!
