Books about Time Travel

Thank you for the link :) I bookmarked it to look through later. Like I said I love time travel books and romance is nice in there as well. I haven't read the Outlander series yet but I think it's one I need to lok into. Jude Deveraux sounds familiar so I think I've read some by her (I think it's a her).

I saw at least one of her books in my stacks. "Rememberance" I think was the title. I'd have to pull it out to see what it's about. I might have more but they are all sort of piled up together in the one room.

Jude Deveraux has been writing historical fiction for more than 20 years and more recent years also does contemporary. She writes mostly about the Montgoery family, as her fans love those Montgomery's and Taggarts Yes I think the Diana Gabaldon will be really interesting as it takes you through history.

I love young adult books as well :) some of the authors in there are very good. I'll check into that. If you like time travel check out Madeline L'enlge's books starting with "A Wrinkle In Time". She has several that deal with time travel that are fantastic. I think Christopher Pike has one too but blanking on the name for it. His are usually good anyways though, he's also in the young adult section.

Thanks :) Will look her up and see what I can find of hers. The name looks familiar but I'm so bad at names. Book titles I'm better at but mostly I remember story lines and nothing else. Makes it fun to try and find the book.

I found the author if anybody is interested - Susan Price.

I know how that is. I have several that I cannot remember the title or author of but I really enjoyed reading. One though comes to mind and it was called "Hanging out with CiCi". It dealt with a girl who went back to when her mother was a teenager and she hung out with her for a day learning a lot about her mother. It was very well written. The time was set during World War 2 and the author did the research for it.

I"ve read some books by Michael Crichton but not that one. I'll have to check into it. The other books I've read of his have been good so I'm sure this one will be as well.

The second one sounds really interesting. Wonder if we could change something that drastic. I'm curious to find out if they could in the story. I'll have to check it out.

Sounds like a good series. I'll have to check into it. I hadn't heard of it before this. Thanks for letting us know.

It is a little obscure. I seem to recall that these stories had been published individually in magazines like the Asimov sci-fi magazine, but this book brought all the stories together. I just remembered another story. It isn't ABOUT time travel, but an element of time travel is in it. As I've noted on at least one other discussion, a series I recommend to all who are interested in true science fiction (as in lots of science elements, not so much adventure) is "The Ganymean Experiment" by James P. Hogan. Actually, I recommend the first book, "Inherit The Stars." The time travel doesn't really come in here. That happens in the third book. But, the first book is sort of a science mistery. It happens in the near future. A human body is found on the moon, clothed in a fully modern space suit. No one knows who he is, or how he got there. But, whatever happenned, it happenned over 50 thousand years ago. Can you imagine what that would do to the scientific community with its general acceptance of the theory of evolution? Well, this story talks about how the story of Charlie is unravelled, and what it means to the human race.

i agree ,too

I'll look into her thanks :) The ones I read from Constance O'Day Flannery were: Timeless Passion Time Swept Lovers Kissed Destiny This Time Forever Now I read these when I was back in college and the first one Timeless Passion was read by most of my dorm. Just kept going from one to another. So that might give you some indication on it.

I have the series of "A Wrinkle In Time". It is fabulous. I really liked the last one "Many Waters". It was a series in my opinion got better with each book.

Sounds interesting. I'll check into it. I've read my share of poorly done time travel books and sci-fi books in general but I have read some very good ones as well. A lot depends on the author and how much research they did with them I have found. Those who do the research and show the time right and/or the science usually write exceptional stories.

That book is awesome! I read it on audio and had no problems following it. Another thing I'd recommend, if you like movies too, is "Somewhere in Time."

Excellent movie I agree. I liked Christopher Reeves in it and how it was all filmed on Mackinac Island. Well all but the begining because they don't allow cars on the island and that part had to be filmed elsewhere. Just so you know that hotel is actually there. It's the Grand Hotel there.

I am unsure of the viability of time travel, but don't discount science fiction too quickly. The more forward-thinking authors had a knack for dreaming up things that seemed like fiction at the time but turned into fact. Oh, not the details, but the general idea. Isaac Asimov, in particular was a great author for this, as he also wrote a LOT of science textbooks. I have never seen any of them, but I've been told that they were some of the most readable textbooks you will ever find.
