Re: Advice on TT books

I'm INCREDIBLY biased here, but there's a time travel comedy called Foop! that's pretty darn good.

Of course, I wrote it. So I really can't be trusted.

Here's a bunch of others that I didn't write which I can recommend in good faith:

To Say Nothing of The Dog
Slaughterhouse-Five
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
A Conneticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
Timequake
The Time Traveler's Wife
Lightning
Looking Backward
The Anibus Gates
The Time Ships

That's just a few. There's also a bunch of great nonfiction books on time travel, if you're into that sort of thing.

There's some interesting time travel in Zelazny's "Creatures of Light and Darkness".

I remember a classic short story called "There was a Crooked Man", don't rmember the author. Another classic is Kornbluth's (I think) "The Black Bag", or "The Bag" or something. Made this one into a Twilight Zone episode

They made a movie out of John Varley's book . Don't remember the title but it had to do with future folks stealing people off doomed airplanes to replenish the ruined future gene pool.

Also, let's not forget H.G. Wells here.

That would be Millenium. Chris Kristoferson played Bill Smith and Cheryl Ladd Louise Baltimore. The movie was less daring than the book, stayed away from the religion questions.

I can't believe I forgot Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love." Sounds mushy but actually it's not.
