Confusing. Sometimes time travel erases your memories along with history, except when it doesn't. Or history is erased but your memories aren't. Or vice versa. Or something. If you write in a journal (on paper, although why paper is essential is never explained) and hide it physically in the past, then you can remember things about the past that you wouldn't otherwise remember, even if those things never happened because history was changed sometime in the future. Or the past. Um. I never understood the difference between Farmers and Misguideds; both groups interfere with history in an attempt to change it. And apparently EEG scanners can identify Farmers, Misguideds, and neutrals, although how a heart scanner can identify ideological distinctions is never explained. I liked the female highwayman, though.
