The Accidental Time Machine Audiobook

" i like joe haldeman but this is my worst read of his books "

" Very good book, didn't end the way I expected it to, but that was part of the fun. "

" Another fine effort from the great Haldeman. Not an all-time classic like "Forever War," but a fun read. First half's better than the second, but still. "

" A good, fast paced book that tells a good story without getting dragged down with too many details or descriptions. "

" I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's a quick read, but very entertaining. While it deals mostly with the issues of time travel, it also involves a developing relationship between the main character and his assistant. It even has a little sex thrown in. A great quick read. "

" Thia is a pretty good book. I would have rated it higher except for one plot hole running throughout the bank. It was concerning the........... Still, it was a pretty good read and I will be keeping the book. "

" This book was good but when Matt and Martha finally get back to the past Haldeman quickly ends the book. I think more development at the end of the book would have made it a great book, not just a good book. "

" A very good back that was a very quick read. This has fresh view of time travel, as it is accidental vs. intentional with also and accidental romance thrown in. "

" It's a pleasant read and an entertaining bit of sci-fi. I'd give it 3.5 stars or a little better, but I'll round up. "

" Fun to read. I'll have to look for more by this author. "

" Unconventional but super interesting time travel story. This time machine only goes forward, not backwards, and only in particular increments. A great commentary on culture, on our near future, and our far future. He threw in a fun romance in there, too. "

" The book ended up being concept-driven rather than character-driven. For me, that makes it really hard to enjoy. "

" A good science fiction novel that will appeal to the non-sci fi fan as well. "

" Holy cow. I'm typically a fan of sci stories, but this book had me feeling like I time traveled back 50 years and had to work my way back day by day to 2010. Very long read - took me forever to get through it. If I had to do it over again, probably wouldnt. "

" Very nice, but it does follow the pattern of many time travel novels in being more descriptive than plot-oriented. "

" Sheer fun. Haldeman shows great imagination. "

" Interesting and straight-forward. Neat idea about time travelling and good characters. Quick read. "

" Funny how Haldeman, a materialist and atheist, creates a cast of characters amongst whom the only likeable one is a Christian. "

" I normally love time travel stories but this one was just dull. I have to admit I only made it halfway before giving up but I was determined not to fall into the trap of seeing it thru to the end only to be even more disappointed. "

" Audiobook. Better than I expected but the last part was unnecessary. There are some interesting plot twists. As a math & physics geek I have serious suspension of disbelief issues with some of the tech and math mumbo jumbo (algebras and rings, give me a break!). "

" It's a pleasant read and an entertaining bit of sci-fi. I'd give it 3.5 stars or a little better, but I'll round up. "

" Am reading this because The Forever War was great. Finished it earlier - really good fun..dragged a little towards end, but a nice little romp through a couple of hundred thousand years... will need to get Forever Free sometime... "

" that reliable Haldeman blend of classic sci-fi with modern. "

" Short review: Decent story but the ending was tacked on... Seemed like it was a tv show that got cancelled before the writers could finish the story. "

" An average book. I felt disconnected from the characters somewhat. This was more like I was watching in from a window rather than being there in the action itself. A really quick light read. "
