I know speculative fiction is not to everyone's taste. Beyond the sci-fi element of time travel, Kindred is just a wonderful novel about race, family, and humanity. I hope you enjoy her.

You have made me want to read this author. I've never read her before. Romance novels were always my genre, but I'm ready to branch out now after reading your post. Very well written Bill.

But will add it to my list. I agree with you, Devon is a good writer. I used a couple of her non-fictions during my research for Conscience. Haven’t read it yet, Kitty. But will add it to my list.

Occasionally you can tell the author bit off more than he/she could chew, or the set-up wasn't strong enough to prep you for the left turn. And there are plenty of movies out there that seem to lose their way. Ah well... I’m always disappointed when a book goes off the rails for me.
