This is the first time I have read a science fiction novel and I must say, I have thoroughly enjoyed “Fifty-One” by Chris Barnham, a science fiction and fantasy writer.
The story opens in the futuristic world of London in 2040 before the reader is whisked back in time to the 1940s during the blitz. With a driving force of mystery and romance it is difficult to put this book down as you follow Jake, Lew, Hannah and Nancy on their mission into the past. What they find there and the significance it has for the world of the future propels them to make choices that will have lasting effects on life as they have known it.
It is a fascinating tale full of questions to be answered that will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you enjoy romance, mystery, the turmoil of London during the blitz, along with a smattering of time travel, I’m sure you’ll find Fifty-One a great read.
