Winner of the 2018 Foreword INDIES Award Gold Medal for Best Sci-Fi! TIME AND TIME AGAIN: Sixteen Trips in Time by beloved science fiction Grand Master ROBERT SILVERBERG presents of all his best time travel fiction in one stunning collection. Silverberg introduces this new collection with a new essay praising early sci-fi icons that left a lasting impression on him as a young boy and launched his sixty-year voyage in time travel fiction.
Over the course of his career, Silverberg expanded time travel’s incredible world of freedom and mystery and delivered imaginative and intriguing stories that are hailed globally. Tales in TIME AND TIME AGAIN include: a marriage destroyed by a time travelling rival, a human waking up in the mind of a lobster after being sent to the future, and a Silverbergian touch to the age-old story of getting an advance peek at the next day’s newspaper.
Each story additionally features new introductions and anecdotes by Silverberg that recount his experiences writing for the greatest science fiction magazines of the past and present. TIME AND TIME AGAIN reaffirms Silverberg’s mastery of not only the science fiction genre, but its most ubiquitous theme.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
These 16 tales of time travel from SFWA Grand Master Silverberg span the length of his illustrious career and range from the minutely technical to the wildly inventive, each raising fascinating questions about the fourth dimension. A jealous ex tries to sabotage a couple by traveling through time to manipulate their past ("Needle in a Time Stack"). A man's consciousness is transported to the body of a gigantic, intelligent lobster in the distant future ("Homefaring"). Scientists save a dying classical composer by bringing him forward in time, only for him to decide that he wants to become a pop star ("Gianni"). Silverberg introduces the collection with a new essay about his early influences, and each story is paired with an anecdote about the experience of writing it, which will appeal to die-hard fans. Though the sexual politics and treatment of the female characters frequently feel quite dated (including a marital rape in "Jennifer's Lover" that is all but ignored by the narrative), the leaps of imagination are fresh as ever, and both new readers and those familiar with Silverberg's work will appreciate his ability to spin a gripping yarn.
