2025 Re-Read
It's been 10 years since I last read this novel, but I have to agree with my original review: this is my least favourite volume of the Pliocene Exile series. It does set me up nicely to progress to May's Galactic Milieu books, which I hope to read during May to July, one per month.
I used to have a fabulous memory, but that ability is long gone. There were very few details that had stuck with me over the last decade. The Pliocene Earth doesn't get much of a chance to dazzle here. It is merely a setting for a largely mental battle. All the humans who came through the time gate are exiles, but Marc Remillard is, as usual, a special case. Having led a rebellion in the Galactic Milieu, he commandeered the time gate and escaped to the past. Everyone else has gone through channels and screening. His mental abilities set him apart, in both positive and negative ways. This time around, I found him more intriguing—perhaps because I know that I'll be seeing him again next month.
Book 5 of my 2025 Read My Hoard Project. This series has earned my favour and will stay in my collection.
