Tales of Time Travel - Book Four: Five Short Science Fiction Stories


Add your own review!

Overview

Time-travel continues to exercise its mesmeric fascination upon writers, readers and editors of science fiction alike. This is probably because almost all of us, at one time or another, have longed greatly to visit either the future or the past. Perhaps, in view of the dangerous paradoxes such travel must involve, it is a good thing that such horological journeys have to date been confined to the printed page. This book consists of a collection of five short science fiction stories about time travel. The stories are (1) My Shipmate - Columbus (We've been taught from childhood that the earth is round and that Columbus discovered America. But maybe we take too much on faith. This first crossing for instance. Were you there? Did you see Columbus land? Here's the story of a man who can give us the straight facts), (2) The Winds of Time (He contracted for a charter trip - but the man who hired his spacer wasn't quite a man, it turned out-and he wanted more than service!), (3) Gun for Hire (A gun is an interesting weapon; it can be hired, of course, and naturally doesn't care who hires it. Something much the same can be said of the gunman, too....), (4) As Long as You Wish (If, somehow, you get trapped in a circular time system . . . how long is the circumference of an infinitely retraced circle?), and (5) Unborn Tomorrow (Unfortunately, there was only one thing he could bring back from the wonderful future ... and though he didn't want to ... nevertheless he did....). This book is the fourth one in a series of seven books on this topic. It is a pleasure to publish this new, high quality, and affordable edition of these timeless stories.
