Mammoth Book Of Time
Travel SF (25
Mindbending
Science Fiction
Stories)
£2.99
This thought-provoking collection not only takes us into the past & the future, but also explores what might happen if we attempt to manipulate time to our own advantage. These stories show what happen once you start to meddle with time & the paradoxes that might arise. It also raises questions about whether we understand time, & how we perceive it.

Is the past & future immutable or will we ever be able to escape the inevitable? These are just some of the questions that are raised in these challenging, exciting & sometimes amusing stories by Kage Baker, Simon Clark, Fritz Leiber, Christopher Priest, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Robert Silverberg, Michael Swanwick, John Varley & many others. ...

P. Lovecraft, M. R. James and J. Sheridan Le Fanu, along with modern masters of the macabre Clive Barker, Robert Bloch, Ramsey Campbell, Hugh B. Cave, Joe R. Lansdale, Brian Lumley, Graham Masterton, Kim Newman, Michael Marshall Smith, Lisa Tuttle, Karl Edward Wagner and many more.From Caribbean rituals to
