Book 23 of 2023: The Technicolor Time Machine by Harry Harrison

Just read and greatly enjoyed this 1967 sci-fi / historical fiction book. It sees a bunch of movie makers team up with a scientist with a time machine, and go back to Viking era Orkney Islands, to fill a Viking movie, with real historical locations, and real life historical Vikings. The concept is absolutely bonkers. The execution is brilliant. I laughed so much throughout. The historian in me also adored how they played with the recorded history, and the role of historical sagas recurring through the story. It's just a blast. If you like time travelling stories with a comic twist check this one out. Utterly bonkers. I'm so glad I read it.
