In a quest for another Outlander...


In the Garden of Iden - Kage Baker

I've become a sucker for the time-traveling type of books - hybrids of science and historical fiction - this one was enjoyable - she goes back to a time when the Spanish Inquisition was threatening England with Bloody Mary - but not something I'd wholeheartedly recommend. It's a quick read, but I didn't learn a whole lot about that time and felt kind of disappointed with the story in general, it felt to focused on Romance with a capital R (and really, the Romance portion of it never really payed off). I've heard that the other books are better in this series, so I might give them a chance. This was a good book, just not as great as I'd hoped.
