I picked this one up on the recommendation of a friend saying I absolutely had to read it. I had it on my kindle for about a year with her asking me every time we got together if I'd read it yet so I finally broke down and read it. Wow! It got off to a really slow start and I was thoroughly confused and wondering if perhaps this was a second book in a series or something as there was so much going on. Turns out no, there wasn't and everything does get explained but it takes a while. I think I was about a quarter of the way in before it stopped being merely confusing and started getting to the point where I understood what was going on and could follow easily at which point I was totally hooked on the story. Trying to summerize this one is hard but basically it's a story about time travel that takes place mostly in the story's present day (2057), 1940s Coventry, and Victorian England. There is love, a missing bird stump, cats, and to say nothing of the dog.
In all, a very fun and entertaining read.
