Short and Sweet Review
The Timematician is about Doctor BetterThan, his plan is to be the only person on the planet and it’s going well until Mairi Lin Monroe comes along. Mairi Lin and her cybernetic lady’s plan on thwarting Doctor BetterThan’s grand plans.
I read the first Gen M book and this one is supposed to be a prequel/sequel or can be read alone. I don’t think it makes sense as a prequel or sequel I don’t see how it would fit. I think Doctor BetterThan is a character from the first book I can faintly remember a character that shares the same attributes but I don’t remember his name. Honestly this book was ridiculous. Its basically just Doctor BetterThan trying to be the last man standing but he meets Mairi Lin and learns that she’s not going to let him be and they end up battling and falling in love. Doctor BetterThan wasn’t a good character he was supposed to be smart but he acted like a child and when he didn’t get his way he would stomp his foot and it was just too childish. The story was boring it was just Doctor BetterThan and Mairi Lin going back and forth and it was predictable. The only thing that was redeemable was the fact that this was a short book.
