I never finished the series, but it was one of my favourites when I was a teen. My one gripe was that there were three different Earths - I wanted more of the fantasy realms, especially >!the cat dimension!<

Honestly fair, I have mixed feelings about that part, too. It was cool to see earth in 3 different timelines and how events from one affected the others. But I agree, I also kinda wish there were more of the crazy worlds.

That and the "lead traveller" being from our world kind of bothered me. In retrospect I think it would have been fun to follow someone from a different planet interacting with our world for the first time lol.

I didn’t mind because Third Earth was my favourite territory. A proper optimistic future is rare to see, and the fleshing out of it made it all the more impactful when it began to crumble. I liked the scariness of how failure on First Earth could ripple through time as well.
