Thoughts on this? Just finished it. Characters were mediocre at best but the world itself and the actual plot was absolutely incredible. The MC was retarded at the end for choosing the girl though.

what do u think?
worth reading?

Just finished The End of Eternity and I can't decide whether I liked it or not.

I guess I really liked the time travel stuff and I found the conclusion very satisfying, but the first half of the book just sooooo dragged on. I think Asimov thought it would be a good idea to give the story a "hook" by telling it out of order but what it resulted in was the reader not knowing the main character's motivation for like 55% of the novel. He did it a lot in the Caves of Steel, but there the gaps between "character gets epiphany" --> "audience finds out what it was" are pretty small, while here's it's half the book.

That red herring with the memoir was fucking genius, though. I could have bet money that there would be a twist that never was. Sasuga Isaac.
