Read 2 times. Last read February 16, 2023 to February 17, 2023.

As the Empirium Trilogy ended up being pretty middling for me on the whole, I'm not sure how much I'll remember it as time goes on.

But for the rest of my life, I will never ever forget Eliana going back in time, approaching Odo Laroche and straight up telling him, "I'm Rielle's as-of-yet unborn daughter. I've time-traveled back 1,000 years to save the world. Can you take me to her?" And he responds like, "Great, right this way." NO FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS.

In my review of Furyborn, I ended it by writing, "I can only see the series improving as it goes on." Egg on my face.

Stephen Wallace The summary does say 'incredible' so maybe that is what they are referring to, that it is incredible that people would reach that way when someone tells them they are from 1,000 years in the future?
Fun review. Thanks. Wish all books were fantastic but good to know which books are not so fantastic.

Stephen Wallace react, not reach... hate typos...

Reach works, too! It certainly was a reach that the author would expect the audience to accept that exchange :)
