It starts out a little slow and confusing. Once I got past the first 100 pages it took off and became really interesting. Harry is a guy who continually lives his life over and over and it is up to him to save the world which is rapidly approaching it's end.

I probably would not have read this book if it hadn't been a suggestion by my book club. It is a novel of constant rebirth and death but with a purpose. I was the only person in my club who enjoyed this book, but it all fairness I was also the only person who finished reading it. The others thought it dull and boring but I found the end justified the means. Read it to the end to find the true meaning of the book.

Others in our book club did not like it but most didn't finish the book. You have to get 1/2 way through before it picks up.

  "Fifteen lives wasted" by sluce (see profile) 09/21/16

Our club felt that the character pretty much wasted his lives and was not a tale a redemption that we had hoped for. Some beautiful writing, but would only recommend to certain people
