I do get a kick out of Sleator. The part of this one that had the Robinson Crusoe thing going on is particularly satisfying, imo. ( ) So there's a very eighties young adult type of writing to this book, and the characters and plot aren't immediately interesting. That's kind of an expected thing in most William Sleator novels though. Another expected thing that sometimes doesn't always happen is how AWESOME it gets further in. I had heard great things about Singularity, so I had my expectations uncomfortably high. I was getting ready for disappointment the more I read, because I really wasn't sure if it was going to pick up. But it DID. Harry is awesome. The book is awesome. I don't know what I can say about it without giving much away. No, it's not perfect. But it's meant to be a quick read, not an indepth hard scifi novel, so I can forgive Sleator for not fleshing out some of the stuff as much. But despite this, there's lots of technobabble to explain the singularity and time travel and stuff like that. It's very well done. All in all, I'd highly recommend Singularity to scifi fans and nonfans. Because it's not hardcore, non-scifi fans will still be able to enjoy it, while scifi fans can get a quick, but awesome, fix for time travel. William Sleator is a wonderful young adult/science fiction author! This was the first book of his I ever read. I was instantly hooked by the concept of this novel and how the story played out. Once I finished this book I set out to collect the rest of the books by William Sleator. Do not miss out on this book! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
