Portals in Time: The Quest for Un-Old-Age by John Teressi reminds me of a cross between George Orwell’s 1984 and James Redfield’s the Celestine Prophecy. This is a story about ten members of the “Eye of Time Exploration Team”, basically time travellers who are sent from another time to find out how to stop their people from aging premturly and save their civilization. Along the way they encounter storms and their greatest fears. They encounter lessons in harmonies that they don’t want to see. I loved the spiritual lessons presented in this book. Through the teams many misadventures great spiritual truths are uncovered. If you enjoyed the “Celestine Prophecy” series you will like this book as well. I loved this book. I would like to thank the author and publisher for providing me with a review copy in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion of it. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
An exciting journey to an unknown land beyond Time that will lead you to answers you did not expect to find. "Portals in Time: The Quest for Un-Old-Age" takes you on a highly original, fantastical adventure in which time travelers from another world arrive in Acronos, a land filled with mystery and wonder. On their quest for Un-Old-Age, these intrepid explorers encounter many intelligent life-forms and experience the surprising awareness of nature. They learn about the Seven Harmonies and begin to understand the connection between mind, body, and spirit. They slowly become aware that their thoughts, words and emotions are creating their reality. This entertaining, inspirational novel of adventure and suspense is reminiscent of "A Wrinkle in Time," "The Celestine Prophecy," and "The Alchemist." Portals in Time is filled with humor, insights, and wisdom that may change your life . No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

NOTE: I received a copy of this book from NetGalley. This review is my honest opinion of the book.
This book was not for me. I wasn't particularly fond of the writing style, which seemed remote and provided more expositions and descriptions than showing the reading what was going on. I can't say I was particularly fond of any of the characters either. The "Eye of Time Exploration Team" memberes were a particularly obnoxious, obtuse, self-centred lot. This team of 10 people somehow never completely interact with each other. The team ends up in Acronos, which (to me) came across as an immitation version of Alice's Wonderland. All the poetry/lyrics did not appeal to me either. However, the concept of the "Seven Harmonies" and how they effected (pr failed to affect) the team was interesting. The "Seven Harmonies" may be of use to those interested in metaphysics and self-improvement.
In short, the concept was interesting, but (in my opinion) the execution was lacking.
