Assessment:
Plot/Idea: Dr. Elizabeth "Lisa" Sapphire, a 26th-century professional time traveler and dynamic temporal scientist, is working on a secret groundbreaking discovery that could alter the nature of time travel forever when tragedy strikes. This is a rollicking tale that's clever, creative, and engaging.
Prose: Sinclair's prose is fast-paced and decidedly elevated-especially for a sci-futuristic thriller. Both science and worldbuilding are detailed and believable. Overall, a well-written, well-crafted roller coaster ride.
Originality: Timewrecked provides a nuanced and imaginative take on tropes, and particularly well-established insight on temporal dynamics.
Character/Execution: Though Lisa Sapphire is an enigmatic, confident, brilliant, kickass heroine, she is also flawed; she experiences doubt and uncertainty despite her 26th-century upgrades and scientific know-how, she's both familiar and a mystery--i.e. she's human, in the best possible (fictional) way. As for the supporting cast: good guys and villains alike are imaginative and, even in the smallest roles, an intrinsic part of the plot, adding depth to an already layered narrative.
