[LauJ]

Hiya,
I don't know if anyone can help me on this. I remember reading a book quite a few years ago, well more than 10 to be honest, and for the life of me I can't rememeber the title. It was about a couple who kept being reincarnated but could never get together due to timing e.g. he was a child when she was elderly, or he was her father in another life...
I'd love to be able to read it again as it made a lasting impression (but obviously ot enough for me to buy a copy of my own at the time).
Any ideas on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Not that I've read it, but could it be "The Time Traveller's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger?

No, not the Time Travelers (sic) Wife - that was only written about three years ago and the couple are together, though they are different ages at different times. Sounds an interesting book though LauJ, if anyone comes up with the title I think I'll get a copy.

Spudqueen,
Somebody on another forum has suggested the Katherine Kerr series and after reading the synopsis for the book Daggerspell, I think it could be it. I'm off on the hunt tomorrow :-)

Hi LauJ, thanks for that, there are a few on e-bay, so I've ordered myself a copy! Hope it is good!

If you like this kind of story, the ultimate must surely be the short story All you Zombies by the science fiction writer Robert Heinlein.
