Customer Reviews

Best time travel book I've ever read

H.G. Wells, look out! This guy Joshua Dann injects new life into the time travel genre. It makes me want to do human expression! Yeaaaaaaah!

AN EXCELLENT TRILOGY

I have read all three in the Timeshare trilogy and was dumfounded to see that one reviewer give it only a single star - until I noticed the reviewer didn't even have the guts to be identified.Timeshare (all three of them) is easy reading with perhaps the strongest points being excellent dialog. Dann's ability to always keep you at the scene is uncanny. This is an wonderful romantic adventure with just the right amount of humor. Dann's knowledge of WW II is impeccable and comes to full bloom in the third book "A Time for War". If the main character seems a little overly perfect, what the heck, he's a 007.

This book (and series) is great.

I've read all three books and enjoyed them all. The books are fun and easy to read. I'm looking forward to more.

Timeshare is one helluva' fun read ...

Timeshare is fun, unpredictable and easy to read. Need to escape for a few hours? Want to live through one of your own fantasies? (At one time or another, haven't we all wanted to turn back the hands of time?) Want some pure enjoyment? Then this is the book. Joshua Dann is obviously a new name in the science fiction world - but I have to believe that his obscurity will be short lived. Timeshare was a pleasure to read. And its great for all ages. Even my 10 and 12 year olds enjoyed it - although some of the nuances of Bogart, Gable and Wayne may have slipped past them. Read and enjoy!!

A fun and easy-to-read piece that blends genres well.

Timeshare is written in a natural, easy prose that makes the story and the main character easy to follow. What fascinated me was it's characterizations of Old Hollywood and it's light style at developing time travel. No unwieldy paradoxes here, only straight-forward fun. It's definitely worth reading if you're in the mood for a heart-warming and interesting laugh, and /especially/ if you're an old movie buff who likes to read time travel stories. A highly enjoyable read
