This morning I remembered the other thing I was going to say about Three Days to Never. One of the things about this book that really rocked my socks off was the way that Powers played with history. In this book, history is not exactly fluid, but it’s not static other. There’s really an aspect of the multiverse here, in that multiple time lines can exist concurrently and can be manipulated even after they’ve officially “happened.” In a way, how Powers had his characters use time travel to change their own pasts really reminded me of the movie The Butterfly Effect, but in a much less melodramatic way.
