"An exciting short story collection"
This collection of twelve wonderfully well-written
tales centers on the paradox of time travel with some tales
going back into the past and other forward into the
future. This reviewer's personal preferences are those
tales that focus on the impact of someone altering an
acceptable historical event (unless someone drifts back and
takes away the EC comic involving sending a probe back to
the dinosaur age that I read as a child). Each entry is
fun and supports the limitless possibilities of what if
that makes time paradoxes so engaging and imaginative, and
time streams so impossible to grasp. These dozen are very
good and entertaining. These strong authors provide
readers with near perfect contributions for inclusion in
PAST IMPERFECT. Harriet Klausner
