The book is ok as such but almost all of it is spent stranded on a primitive planet which is not really my cup of tea.

Kinda slow, then kinda too fast at the end! This was a departure from the previous books in the series, and very much reminded me at times of The Time Machine and the world found there.

1. I liked this book. Really, I did. I forgot how much I love Jason. He tries his best and I just want him to be happy. Also made me feel old. I read Orphanage back when I was a teenager so when Jason thinks about how far he’s come since then I’m just like wow me too buddy.

2. It’s a pretty smooth read like the previous two books but oh boy I had no idea where we were going. It’s a wild ride but an enjoyable one. I had to suspend even more disbelief than usual but I’m okay with that.

While entertaining enough, I found the switch from the previous books' focus on plausible (for soft sci-fi) futuristic combat to a swords and planets-esque tale of dinosaur-riding barbarians to be a little jarring.
