#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this thriller from the author of Jurassic Park, Sphere, and Congo, a group of young scientists travel back in time to medieval France on a daring rescue mission that becomes a struggle to stay alive.
  
“Compulsive reading . . . brilliantly imagined.”—Los Angeles Times
 
In an Arizona desert, a man wanders in a daze, speaking words that make no sense. Within twenty-four hours he is dead, his body swiftly cremated by his only known associates. Halfway around the world, archaeologists make a shocking discovery at a medieval site. Suddenly they are swept off to the headquarters of a secretive multinational corporation that has developed an astounding technology. Now this group is about to get a chance not to study the past but to enter it. And with history opened up to the present, the dead awakened to the living, these men and women will soon find themselves fighting for their very survival—six hundred years ago.

One of my favorite books. By one of my favorite authors.

Not bad. A little predictable. Entertaining. Follows a formula to keep things moving. Predictable.

Excellent Book. I read this book in a night, and absolutely loved every second of it! Thrilling page-turner with fabulous characters and plot (the science is a little iffy though, haha). I'm definitely going to be reading this again!

This author never disappoints …. Timeline is just as relevant and entertaining today as the day it was released. Michael Crichton is a world class storyteller and scientist. This is one of his best.

Another great by Crichton. I've read most his work and this one didn't disappoint.

The Last Chapter was Crichton. Found myself skimming far more that I should have for a book from the middle of his publications.

Beat book ever!!. I love this book so much!!! I hate to read and I'm obsessed with this book! When I'm not reading it its all I think about! ... I'm also a slow reader lol... I watched the movie first before I even knew it was a book, I loved the movie cuz I loved the concept of it but when I read the book OMGGGG it was nothing like the movie! Not one scene is in the movie... So I don't compare the two I basically treat the book like a completely different thing from the movie... I love this book! Wish it never ended!

Captivating but often questionable. I found this book on my father’s book shelf as a young child and always wanted to know what to was about but being young with a distaste for reading I never got around to until recently. The story itself has an almost unique capability of being a time drama as well as a soft science fiction thriller. I must say that there are many times that the plot was pushed forward only by mere coincidence on more than one occasion, and I found a few points that seemed to be completely unnecessary (the crazed night at the Church of the Green Death for example) apart from adding more gore to an already bloody and action filled story. Overall, it was a pleasure to read!

Timeline. Great book,

Excellent, riveting story!. I have read this book twice (which I never do) but it is surely one of my favorites. Like some others have said, the movie was awful but movies rarely live up to the books. Love this book!!!! A must read!

Timeline. It was a good, fast paced book. A lot of twists that I didn't think could be untwisted but she did it!!

Authentic!. Fast paced. Hard to put down. Authentic. ~ Jackie-the-Critic

Awesome!. I love this book. Hate the movie. That simple. Very well thought out plot that is backed by science, which is a trademark of M.C. books.

Brilliant. My favorite of all his books. And, yes, sadly, the movie was really that bad....

Spectacular ‼️. Wow‼️ Michael Crichton is so smart and his writing was so far ahead of his time it is amazing. My second reading of this book was even more enlightening than my first.

BEST BOOK EVER. I love love love this book. I picked it up one day in my science class and i couldn't put it down. I have to admit, the end had me a little teared up. Hamilton's "History Has Its Eyes On You" was playing in my head at the end. Definitely worth the money.

Awesome. Another great Micheal Crichton book.

A great medieval sci-fi mix. A real page turner that I just couldn't put down. Not his greatest, but a great thriller about the likely dangerous times of the medieval period. A bit light in the excitement and drama occurring in real time, but I'm willing to look past that.

Timeline. Crichton's book has more action than Pirates of the Caribbean on steroids. This easy to follow page turner is suspenseful, yet fun, and the reader always knows the good guys will survive even if the situation is incredibly bleak. I read it over the holiday, and it was light and refreshing but did have a lot of historical information, due to the fact that it was very, very well researched. A great story, about a very misunderstood time in our history.

Awesome!. So interesting and fast paced and suspenseful.. I couldn't stop reading it!

Awesome. With all its suspense and fast paced action, it is like you are actually there in the medieval times. 5/5
