I chose this for a book club read one month when we tried something different--everyone chose a short story for the group to read. Seven members. One other member was a fan of Blackout and loved Fire Watch. Others were more along the lines of WT?? Not a WTF group. Not really a science fiction or fantasy group, especially after I made them read American Gods. A couple enjoyed Fire Watch. For others--time travel where no one tries to change the past? and it's a novelette, not a short story! (in my defense, it is short-ish, available free online, and I have to slip the sf to them where I can)
I love this first look at the Oxford historians, and the issue the apostrophe causes. I love that this glimpse of St Paul's (not St Paul) eventually gives us Blackout, and Fire Watch.
