Not sci-fi, would have made a nice short story
I purchased this book thinking that it was going to be an interesting science fiction story. It is definitely not sci-fi, nor is the story particularly interesting. It is more of a mystery/thriller that happens to involve Da Vinci going forward in time mysteriously (it just sorta happens). The author's take on how Da Vinci adapts to 1980's Canada is not bad, but could have been explored more deeply. The whole caper with Sparo Aeronautics is run of the mill fare. And the author's fascination with dorm-mates bathing and drinking together naked is just plain weird.300 odd pages later it might have made a fine short story.
