Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Time Out of Joint

Book Review: Excellent read for anyone who liked the Truman Show
Summary: 5 Stars

For a modern audience, this novel is similar to The Truman Show in that the main character finds himself in idealistic American suburbia whose reality he begins to question. He is drawn into trying to establish whether he is part of a huge global conspiracy all centered around him, or if he is just a paranoid lunatic. However, the similarities end after that as it becomes clear that this is no television show, but something much, much more ominous.

After a slow beginning, the action soon picks up as the reality of the world he lives in becomes very fragile indeed. From about a quarter of the way through the pace never lets up until the last few pages when the truth is finally revealed.
