Explanation In Favor Of Books All Clear (All Clear #2)

In Blackout, award-winning author Connie Willis returned to the time-traveling future of 2060—the setting for several of her most celebrated works—and sent three Oxford historians to World War II England: Michael Davies, intent on observing heroism during the Miracle of Dunkirk; Merope Ward, studying children evacuated from London; and Polly Churchill, posing as a shopgirl in the middle of the Blitz. But when the three become unexpectedly trapped in 1940, they struggle not only to find their way home but to survive as Hitler’s bombers attempt to pummel London into submission.

Now the situation has grown even more dire. Small discrepancies in the historical record seem to indicate that one or all of them have somehow affected the past, changing the outcome of the war. The belief that the past can be observed but never altered has always been a core belief of time-travel theory—but suddenly it seems that the theory is horribly, tragically wrong.

Meanwhile, in 2060 Oxford, the historians’ supervisor, Mr. Dunworthy, and seventeen-year-old Colin Templer, who nurses a powerful crush on Polly, are engaged in a frantic and seemingly impossible struggle of their own—to find three missing needles in the haystack of history.

Told with compassion, humor, and an artistry both uplifting and devastating, All Clear is more than just the triumphant culmination of the adventure that began with Blackout. It’s Connie Willis’s most humane, heartfelt novel yet—a clear-eyed celebration of faith, love, and the quiet, ordinary acts of heroism and sacrifice too often overlooked by history.

Critique Epithetical Books All Clear (All Clear #2)

Another extremely FRUSTRATING Connie Willis novel. It is getting to the point where I feel like my frustration with her recent books is changing the way I feel about her older ones. I'm especially disappointed now in her explanation for slippage and the closed drop points. Basically everything seems to come down to fate and amazing coincidence and nothing our characters did really seems to matter because the universe made sure to step in at every possible point to make sure things went the right

It's here It's here!The only reason why this is not a 5 is because the middle section of Blackout and All Clear (and I count them as one book, because really they are) annoyed me a bit with the obsession over whether they changed the outcome of the war and where the retrieval team, over and over. I understand why Willis did this (complete anxiety!) but it was too much. Probably because I have gone through times in my life when I too get completely stuck in the broken record of a mind loop, and

Perhaps this wasn't the best of book(s) to have started with Willis. As much as I wanted to like it, the story just didn't rise to the occasion, but dragged on and on and on from one book to another with hardly any suspense or change in it's tiringly frenzied pace. I ultimately had to accept, that despite it's few scattered moments, the destination hadn't enough of an impact to justify the taxing journey.The narration was meandering and repetitive, and the approach got lost somewhere in

All Clear (and Blackout) are an excellent way to learn more about World War II/The Blitz in England. It is, however, an extremely frustrating book on many other levels.Of particular concern to me was the tendency for the historians to explain details that the other historians should hand in their degrees for not knowing. It was one thing in Book 1 to have to explain that Agatha Christie was a novelist. It's another thing altogether to revolve a major plot point on the fact that one of the

I hate this book so much. I hate it so much that it hurts. I hate that I spent an audible credit on it. I hate that it's about subjects I LOVE- WWII? Bletchley Park? And it still sucks. It's not badly written- it's just a terrible story, and the lead characters are whiny, dumb, ignorant, and keep switching voices. (that last isn't the author's fault). I HATE that I know more WWII trivia than these "historians" do. That part is the worst. That and the idea that three professional time travellers,



Walk-on appearances by Alan Turing, Agatha Christie, Queen Elizabeth, General Patton ... we didn't quite get to have afternoon tea with the King and Winston Churchill, but almost. Puh-leeze!Added to the need to cram in every bit of information possible on the Blitz and the build-up to D-Day, Connie Willis gave us in this book and "Blackout" two horrendous Cockney brats who turned out to be a crucial part of the plot. I suspect the problem is that Willis' books are totally plot driven and her
