Time Out For Tomorrow

by Richard Wilson

This quality Wilson possesses in abundance and, perhaps in the end, it is this that makes his work such a joy to read.TIME OUT FOR TOMORROW contains twelve SF tales of vivid imagination!Kin (1956)The Big Fix (1956)Wasp (1954)An Abundance of Good Things (1954)The Tunnel Under the World (1959)The Best Possible World (1960)The Voice of the Diaphragm (1958)QRM (1957)The Ubiquitous You (1957)Just Call Me Irish (1958)The Locus Focus (1957)

Time Patrol: A Time Patrol Book (Gateway Essentials)

by Poul Anderson

Forget minor hazards such as the H-Bomb. The discovery of time travel means that everything we know, anyone we know, might not only vanish, but never even have existed.

The fabric of history is stained with human blood and suffering which he cannot, must not do anything to alleviate, lest his tampering bring disastrous alterations in future time.
