Our view
“Time’s Eye” opens the “A Time Odyssey” series with a grand premise that throws together time travel, ancient warfare and aliens. Arthur C. Clarke wrote it with Stephen Baxter, and the story continues in “Sunstorm”. Some readers are put off by what they see as flat characters and laboured prose. Its appeal lies in the sheer scale of the concept.
