I’d forgotten what a great storyteller Michael Crichton is. I’m not particularly interested in French history, and yet I enjoyed this story, which tells of a band of scientists who are sent back in time. Much of the story takes place in France in 1400, so if you enjoy medieval history, you’ll like this. I was more interested in the modern-day aspect of the story, and the science it involves, but like many of Crichton’s books this kept me turning pages.
Amazon.com has a nice summary of the story in its “editorial reviews” section; see links below.
