A good sci-fi read about time travel. If I'd realized it was going to be so depressing I'd have tried not to get so attached to the curious characters. But I give it good marks for comparative realism. Not a romanticized view of time travel, or the Middle Ages. I was really surprised it had a relatively happy ending.
