Couldn't Put it Down
I thoroughly enjoyed this book! It captures the reader and the imagination goes into overdrive, trying to guess what happens next. I was usually wrong, however. I was sad that the book ended and I can't wait until the next book comes out!

Riveting
Riveting! Dennis Higgins in Time Pilgrims creates a web of intriguing characters Katya and Cyrus as they time travel through the vortex of captivating series of events. I could not put this book down. Excellent for young adults and adults alike, this novel should be on library shelves. Five-stars all the way for this wonderful author.

My Thoughts
Katya and Cyrus by author, Dennis Higgins, is a story of time travel, romance, adventure, action, history ... all rolled up into an easy to read book. You will become involved enough with the characters to want to turn the page to see what happens next - a sign of success in any book. When does Katya really come from? The details of the story kept me informed without being overwhelming. Traveling back through time with the benefit of hindsight in the capable hands for our heros, Katya and Cyrus, was as intriguing as going forward to the year they were from in the storyline. How will the world we are in today be different in a decade or two? Dennis Higgins has given me a suggestion or two as well as a prediction of his own. I was disappointed when I reached the last page and thrilled when I read it's a series. As great entertainers have often said, "Always leave `em wanting more!" Dennis, when's the next book???
