This wonderfully diverse collection of 25 truly mindbending SF stories takes us not only into the past and the future, but also explores what might happen if we attempt to manipulate time to our own advantage. It takes an imaginative and multi-faceted look at the paradoxes that might arise if ever we succeed in meddling with time. Once we move outside the present day, can we ever return or do we move into an alternate world? What happens if our meddling with nature leads to time flowing backwards, or slowing down, or even stopping all together? Are past and future immutable, or might we one day escape the inevitable ? These are just some of the questions raised in these challenging, exciting and sometimes amusing stories by Damien Broderick, Simon Clark, Ellen Klages, Fritz Leiber, Elisabeth Malartre, John Varley and many others. A thought-provoking collection of Time Travel SF that not only takes us into the past and the future, but also explores what might happen if we attempt to manipulate time to our own advantage.
