TIME TRAVEL........ the very thought interests all of us.... wouldn’t it be wonderful to go back into the past or zoom into the future......

This is the basic concept of the awesome intruiging
book by the master of fiction michael crichton......

Looking int the story...
A group of archaeologists study an old excavation site in France. They have been finding buildings and stuff, and in one of them they find a letter dated in 1357 from their boss asking for help. They also find his glasses. The researchers get a visit from a person who says that they can go to a different universe to study this site like it was in 1357. He tells them this is exactly what their boss has done.
 
So, They send a team to try and save their boss. 3 of the archaeologists go along to identify him. As soon as they get there, things start to go terrible wrong: big black knights come and kill two of the armed mercinaries sent back with them. The group splits up and eventually go on the ride of their lives to try and rescue their friend and save their own skins in the process of and big war going on. This book is excellent and seems eerily plausible and believeable.

The pace at which the story flows is just too good for us to leave it midway..... open it and you won’t close it till you are done with it...

The only thing that seemed too awkward was about patenting history and all that stuff in the end of the book....

Otherwise a brilliant book and a must read for all sci-fi readers.
