I much preferred the first book in this series, but I thought the continuation from the original was very good. I think the idea of returning to the past becomes slightly more predictable and repetitive but the stories of each character are varied so it is still a nice read. Once again, there is a philosophical idea that runs throughout each short story and links it all together at the end which is very effective.
