“Time’s Eye” by Stephen Baxter, Arthur C. Clarke, 2004

“Time’s Eye” by Stephen Baxter, Arthur C. Clarke, 2004

This is the first or three installments in Clarke and Baxter’s “Time Odyssey” series in which Earth is fragmented into different eras of time when orbs called eyes appear at various location. Inhabitants from the different eras interact, form allegiances, and fight wars; whilst trying to make sense of the time discontinuity.

The story takes a while to pick up and ramps up towards the middle of the book. After adjusting to the main characters not having traditional “Western” names, the book became easier to read. Overall, enjoyable.

My rating: ★★★☆☆ (3 out of 5 stars)
