![]() ![]() Like I said, the premise of this book is interesting – time travel as a way to gather resources. However, on his way back, he breaks the cardinal Time Law, bringing a doomed scientist, Elise Kim back with him, and now they’re both fugitives. James Griffin-Mars is a chronman who gets a “golden ticket” job offer, accelerating his retirement considerably. The only thing keeping humanity going are the chronmen, who take difficult excursions into the past and salvage material for present day rebuilding. It’s the 26th century, and humanity is in danger of extinction due to centuries of war and resource limitations. Unfortunately, I didn’t think Time Salvager was very good – it had a great premise, but the writing was clunky, the plot is riddled with clichés and the characters seemed more like archetypes than people. I hadn’t read anything by Wesley Chu before, but I’ve heard extravagant praise for the Lives of Tao series, so I was looking forward to it. ![]()
