If you enjoyed "Replay" and are considering springing for an overpriced used copy online--as I did--don't. This book's feeble in both its plot and writing style, and will seriously disappoint "Replay" fans.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fans of Replay will like this one, too
Checked this out at the library about 8 years ago just after reading Replay, which I loved. Good book--telepathic time travel, mind control, etc. Can't remember it in detail, but know that I liked it. Look for it at used bookstores.
