Hell's Gate

On the plus side, this book's opening is a great hook and draws you in. It has some really interesting ideas about time travel and how navigating a multiverse would be. The ideas aren't just clones of other popular ideas floating around that I've seen, it's something different and the actors in the story seem to be richly described and thought through a bit.

On the negative side I thought there was too much description of action/adventure which I'm not a huge fan of. There are only so many times I can read about the hero barely dodging laser death or almost perishing before I just don't care anymore and want to advance the story. The hero is a bit of the white guy savior cliche but it's an old story so I give it a little forgiveness.

A solid weird story that went in a totally unexpected direction for me that was somewhere between alright and good. The opening really was the best part though...
