3.0

This is a fun book to read 3 years after it was set, and 20 years after it was written. The assumptions about technology and tactics remind me of Star Trek, and similar worlds set in the future. I like that they going back in time is not too cheesy, and that the outcome of that impact is that it truly changes world history. The ability to have the Axis powers see how they get change and maybe win world war II, is a good twist. Overall it's a pretty simple book and a good read for those who want to relax for bed.
