Review of Timewise
[Following is a volunteer review of "Timewise" by Robert Leet.]
"Timewise" by Robert Leet is a gripping 31-chapter novel that skillfully blends Ron's personal journey with intriguing physics concepts. While some of these concepts may be familiar to readers, others are unique and thought-provoking, yet the author seamlessly weaves them into the narrative, making them easy to understand and relevant to everyday life.
Ron’s childhood was challenging, as he was shuffled from one foster home to another after spending time in an orphanage. As a teenager, he was passionate about chess and didn’t have much interest in making money. This all changed when he met Regina Russo, a physics professor who inspired him to go back to college and become interested in physics and mathematics. Regina was so supportive that she even paid for his education so that he could focus on his studies instead of playing poker. Even though they lived far away from each other, Ron was dedicated to Regina and always found ways to help her when she needed it.
The book masterfully blends physics and fiction, creating a dual experience for readers where they can follow Ron's life while also exploring quantum theories. The multifaceted nature of the story extends to various subjects, including botany, poker, chess, and life lessons, making it a fascinating and educational read. The author has a remarkable ability to seamlessly incorporate complex scientific concepts into a gripping narrative, keeping readers thoroughly engaged throughout the book.
What stood out to me the most in this book was Regina's remarkable character. Her passion for science and her genuine desire to see Ron succeed really shine through in their meaningful and impactful conversations, which contrast sharply with the often superficial nature of everyday discussions. The gradual and realistic development of Ron’s friendship with Cheryl Liona adds depth to the story, and Mrs. Gretchen's grandmotherly care for Ron adds a heartwarming layer to his journey. Overall, I had no dislikes for this captivating novel and found it thoroughly enjoyable.
I found the book to be nearly perfect, but I wished for more character development, especially when it comes to Regina. While her scientific beliefs were explored in detail, I still felt like her personal attributes were not fully fleshed out. Despite the minor issue I encountered, the book was remarkably well edited, with no noticeable errors, and I would give it a full 5 out of 5 stars. The seamless blend of character traits and scientific explanations is truly impressive.
I highly recommend "Timewise" to readers who love science fiction mixed with romance and physics. If you're interested in learning more about the complexities of physics while being fully engaged in an exciting and entertaining story, this book is a fantastic choice.
