A group of researchers has discovered the modern “Fountain of Youth.” The decisions they make could change both their lives and the landscape of the world.
Writing Style
The continuity felt a bit jumbled near the start of the book. Beyond this, Tigner’s writing was tight and visual. His prose is not wasteful.
Did I put it down?
Tigner’s book felt like dessert. I enjoyed it, but only in small portions.
Content
Tigner has some extremely violent scenes in this book, and descriptions of torture would top this list. We also see some brief sexuality.
Would I recommend The Price of Time?
Yes, I would, but with a caveat. Tigner’s book asks the question,” Would anyone know if someone discovered the Fountain of Youth?” The series of events that answer this question border on ludicrous in the most enjoyable way. A suspension of disbelief is required. To say much more would ruin the plot. I cannot imagine a world where these events could happen, but I suppose a person who worked in Soviet Counterintelligence knows better than me anyway.
