Stolen Time


(2 Sterne)

This collection has a wonderful title. The stories, however, are surprisingly blah. The readers try hard, but the ending of each of these is blah. The best some of these can do is provide a healthy dose of circa 1900 political atmosphere.

Too short to have good twists and turns.
