Three Days To Never

I just finished this book the other day, and yeah, it was really good, but i don't think it was Powers' best work.

Anyone else read it? what did you think?

It's got some usual Powers flavors - time travel, paranomal weirdness, strange machines, bad guys who use mystical powers. . .

Re: Three Days To Never

It isn't my favorite, either, to be honest. However, I think perhaps that my expectations for it were probably much to high after hearing him talk about it in panels at LosCon one year, when he was still in the process of writing it.

Having said that, it wasn't a bad book by any means.

I'm going to have to read it again, I think. Some of the time-travel stuff was kind of confusing to me, and I remember thinking at the time that I was going to have to read it again. I haven't had a chance to do that yet.
