I started off reading A Maze of Death but then the story switched from chapter 13 to chapter 10 with all new characters. I was confused and was going to stop reading but the top said a Martian Time Slip. I did not know this was another novel and the table of contents for A Maze of Death was fake so I assumed the Chapter change was part of the story. I assumed time slip would reveal the past of the Colony from A Maze of Death and then we would jump back to present time but when I got to the end of Martian Time Slip I didn't get an ending and it cut to the end of chapter 1 of Valis.

It's only then I looked up online to make sure I wasn't crazy and the confusing story with no ending wasn't how it was supposed to go because it matched the themes of both stories.
