review 1: I had read both of the authors previous work and enjoyed them and was looking forward to this one. This book started off with great potential. The mystery surrounding Michaela's disappearance is very interesting and I thought the explanation at the end would be fitting, whether it was mere fantasy or science. However, the explanation was quite ambiguous and didn't really seems clear to me. I have read books with better chemistry between the main characters, and I think this one lacked that. There isn't much dialogue between the main leads and that was disappointing. Hopefully, the next read will be better.
review 2: Odd. A good idea and although I didn't really like some of the rather clumsy writing and overly elaborate `scene setting` paragraphs, I was ... moreintrigued. But people just don't really talk to each other like that! They don't live like that. The most unbelievable thing was not that the heroine had disappeared into a space time vortex but that any of the characters lived/spoke/behaved/wore/functioned as the author wrote them to. Total nonsense. However I was intrigued by the 're occurring theme of quite big age differences within almost all of the relationships. A local author (way too many references to local towns and a shop?!) so worth supporting. Ridiculous 'love at first sight' nonsense and gratuitous tarot card red herrings. A token religion vs science vs humanist discussion .... The ending was ok but not especially satisfying. A good initial idea though. less
