I will admit that I found the story to read a bit jumbled, especially in the beginning. It feels like we’re thrown in, and then plot things just keep happening and happening, but we haven’t really had a chance to get to know Saira and settle into the book. And that, for me, was where this book didn’t live up to my expectations. Everyone has something that they’re drawn to in the written word, it’s why we all gravitate towards different things, and there is no such thing as a universally beloved book (though some come close). For me that thing is ALWAYS characters. A book can have the most spectacular plot and world building, but if I don’t connect with our main character, then there will always be something missing for me.Saira felt very closed off to me. I can see from other reviews that she’s very loved, but for me she was just okay. I struggled to understand her motivations, to understand her heart. She felt more like a vehicle for the plot than someone for me to connect with. There were definitely moments where I would spy her underneath it all (especially the longer stay in the past), but inevitably I wanted more from her. I wanted to know what she was feeling, how she was dealing with these changes, what she thought of some of these other characters, just…MORE.I actually felt like I got more from some of the secondary and background characters than I did Saira. The kids she meets at St. Brigid’s intrigue me, Sanda’s whole family line really intrigued me with very little time on the page. I even felt like I connected more with Archer, though some still remains a mystery. And most of all, I fell in love with Ringo (though am I the only one who thought he was like 10 for the first half of the book?).The world is definitely intriguing, though I will admit I prefer clearer rules and definitions — those may come in future books. Trying to understand how the time travel works is still ticking away in the back of my brain driving me crazy. Again, things that may be further explored as the series goes on.I’m definitely interested in the mystery and plot, and it was most definitely enough for me to want to read more. There were bits I totally made great guesses on, and others that I totally didn’t see coming!I really hope the pace of information slows down in future books…it felt like the plot was just wham wham wham, and I started to fall in love with the book when there was finally time to settle. I was okay with the fast ride at the end, because that was expected, it was the beginning that had me a bit jumbled.So yeah. A lot to say that it wasn’t the slam dunk I was expecting, but I’m definitely still in for more. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Blend of in is to rival Fiction Science Fiction *by P***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 22, 2023* I really enjoyed the slow methodical development of peripheral characters. The place descriptions and time development seemed accurate. The story slipped easily from modern times to the 1880's without being clumsy or breaking the flow of the story. This was a thoroughly enjoyable read! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved It! *by J***C on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 23, 2023* I honestly couldn’t put this book down. I fell in love with the characters & I really enjoyed reading about 1888 London. I can’t wait to read the next book! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/10087019-marking-time-the-immortal-descendants-book-1-paperback-illustrated-november](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/10087019-marking-time-the-immortal-descendants-book-1-paperback-illustrated-november) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
