The Dream of the Iron Dragon by Robert KroeseMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a 3-star review.
While I have greatly enjoyed other books by this author, this one was a bit pedestrian. The crew of a spaceship attempts to save themselves with a radical last ditch maneuver that tosses them back thousands of years into the past. They crash land back on Earth. The original intent was to use their modern tech to survive until they could effect repairs or they were otherwise rescued.
Their ship is in pieces. There is next to nothing left of their tech. So they must make themselves useful to the locals by using their knowledge of science and math.
Interesting premise. Reasonable well told.
But the obvious beginning of a much longer series with no significant problem resolution present in the first book. Not enough here for me to consider coming back to the series.
