This is one of those books that quietly sneaks up on you. I had picked it up knowing little more than what\u2019s available in the synopsis, expecting a sci-fi drama about a family torn apart by inexplicable time travel, but what I got was so much more than that, and so much more ambitious.<\/p>\n<p>The story follows Scott Treder, an ordinary man having an ordinary morning when his life suddenly takes an impossible turn. One moment, he\u2019s driving to work, and the next, the world blurs around him before snapping back into focus. To Scott, this only lasts a few seconds, but in reality, an entire day has passed. During those missing twenty-four hours, he\u2019d simply disappeared, leaving his wife frantic and his coworkers wondering where he had gone. With no explanation, Scott assumes it must have been some kind of medical episode, until the exact same thing happens again the following morning. This time, however, two days go by. When again it happens, he loses four days. Then it\u2019s eight. Sixteen. Every morning, at precisely the same time, the gap doubles, and before long, Scott is skipping months at a time, while his wife and young son are left behind to cope with his increasingly devastating absences. Though only days seem to pass for Scott, his family is forced to live through every moment in real time without him, causing irreparable damage to his marriage.<\/p>\n<p>As Scott struggles with the grief of watching the people he loves move further and further beyond his reach, he also witnesses his son Lyle grow from a precocious child into a brilliant physicist whose entire life and career become shaped by the mystery surrounding what\u2019s happening to his father. But what begins as an intimate story about one family\u2019s struggle with an impossible situation gradually expands into something far more consequential. As the jumps stretch from years to decades, centuries, and even millennia, Scott becomes an unwilling traveler through humanity\u2019s future, the personal and immediate effects of his condition giving way to the countless possibilities that lie ahead for civilization itself.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve said it before and I\u2019ll say it again: time travel is a tricky subgenre for me because I have a bad habit of poking at the paradoxes or wondering how every detail works, and little things like that tend to pull me out of immersion. Thankfully, <em>The Traveler<\/em> is one of those rare novels that is engaging and emotionally resonant enough that I stopped worrying about the mechanics and simply enjoyed the thought-provoking journey.<\/p>\n<p>For one, I was surprised at the punch it packed. Beneath all the speculative elements is a moving story between a father and a son, and despite everything else that happens, this is the core of the novel that grounds everything else. Whenever Scott comes back to himself after a jump, he only has a day before it happens again. Because the gaps increase exponentially, it doesn\u2019t take long before he\u2019s losing years then decades at a time, seeing Lyle as a college student one day and a middle-aged man the next. Watching Scott cling to these scattered moments with his son while imagining the life he was robbed of is genuinely heartbreaking. I am reminded that the best science fiction has always been about the characters first and the concepts second.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the family drama is only one small part of the whole. The author also uses Scott\u2019s condition to explore one fascinating idea after another, a thought experiment on what human civilization might look like as the centuries and millennia roll by. The approach to time travel itself is unique but also easy to understand, so rather than getting bogged down in endless explanations it just stays focused on telling the story. Sure, if you\u2019re determined to get your questions answered, you\u2019ll probably be disappointed. But the narrative is so imaginative, the pacing so addictive, that I didn\u2019t care.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the final stretch, including the ending, was a little dubious. As I said, the story gradually shifts away from the personal and the immediate, turning to bigger and more theoretical and existential ideas. Personally, I have mixed feelings about the ending, though if I\u2019m being honest, there\u2019s probably no good way to wrap things up that would satisfy everyone. By this point, the scope has expanded to such an enormous scale that any conclusion would fail to match its weight.<\/p>\n<p>Still, <em>The Traveler <\/em>turned out to be one of my favorite surprises of the year. It\u2019s imaginative without becoming too inaccessible, and thoughtful without being overly sentimental. I enjoyed myself immensely even when I had no idea where it was headed. This one will easily find a place near the top of my end-of-year favorites list, though I suspect it will fly under a lot of radars, so do check it out if you\u2019re looking for a hidden gem.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13712\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/2016\/01\/22\/book-review-winterwood-by-jacey-bedford\/4-5stars\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/4-5stars2.png\" data-orig-size=\"153,32\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"4-5stars\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/4-5stars2.png?w=153\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13712 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/4-5stars2.png?w=150\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"31\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/4-5stars2.png?w=150 150w, https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/4-5stars2.png 153w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13868\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/2016\/01\/17\/book-review-owl-and-the-city-of-angels-by-kristi-charish\/mogsy-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/mogsy-2.png\" data-orig-size=\"324,79\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mogsy 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/mogsy-2.png?w=324\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13868 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/mogsy-2.png?w=150\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"37\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/mogsy-2.png?w=150 150w, https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/mogsy-2.png?w=300 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"wordads-inline-marker\" style=\"display: none;\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- BEGIN .postmeta --><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-navigation\">\n<div class=\"previous-post\">\u2190 <a href=\"https:\/\/bibliosanctum.com\/2026\/07\/30\/book-review-sea-of-charms-by-sarah-beth-durst\/\" rel=\"prev\">Book Review: Sea of Charms by Sarah Beth\u00a0Durst<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .post-navigation --><\/p>\n<p><!-- #comments --><\/p>\n<p><!-- END .postarea -->\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I received a review copy from the publisher.
