Alien Redrum

I read both The Alienist and The Angel of Darkness, and I noticed he has written a new one called Killing Time : A Novel of the Future.

Has anyone read this or reading this?

Any thoughts?

Is it as good as his first 2 (fiction ones mentioned above)?

Thanks for any suggestions/thoughts.

Well, it doesn't really matter whether you've read any of his books before ('The Alienist' was a superb book - I wasn't all that impressed by the 'Angel of Darkness') because 'Killing Time' is 'different'. It's set in the future and is reminiscent of a 'Captain Nemo' like adventure. It's an easy read, and I enjoyed it but don't get it because of the other 2. Hope this helps.

Killing Time as I remember was one I enjoyed mostly because of the range in Carr's writing. Not many authors can make a transition from historical fiction to science fiction successfully, and it's worth reading just to see it done. It's as good as the first two, but as Pmartyn said 'different'.

Bigmommadvd, check out CC's historical factual tome - The Devil Soldier. I got it from Amazon. Now taht's what I call quite good.
