A huge disappointment after “2012 What If”. Far too many scenes of drunkenness and sex. I liked the protagonist in the first book and sympathised with his predicament. This time I disliked him and didn’t care what happened to him. I won’t be reading the next book, if there is one. ( )

Mr Irvin did it to me again! I was expecting to read the concluding instalment of James Quinn and his travels between two different worlds but once again it was all poised for him to move into a different timeframe and we came to the end of the book! This story took me into James Quinns new life in London which was engulfed in a pandemic based upon Covid. Here he had a special status being known as a time traveller and we were treated to reading about his excess drinking, fornicating and depressions. We also met again the Professor, the Home Secretary (Caroline), Jane and Sarah both James' wives. I did enjoy the story and will read the next installment if it gets written. One issue that irritated me was how badly the book had been proofread with many mistakes both of grammar and spelling. Please Ian make sure the next book you write is proofread properly. ( )

A fabulous story which kept me enthralled throughout - until I got to the end. What happened to the end? It just was not there and the author left it up to us the readers to make our own ending up. What a disappointment. ( )
