The Time Ships (Paperback)

Customer Review

This is the first time I have ever read Stephen Baxter, and already I am anxious for more of his work. This book which probably one of - if not the - most imaginative sci-fi novels I have ever read. It starts out with the Time Traveller, Determined to save Weena - the Eloi girl he left behind in the far future - taking another fateful trip into the future. But instead of a repeat of the original Wells book, but with a save-the-damsel-in-distress storyline, it turned into an epic journey through alternate histories and future worlds are just astonishing fact as you read the book.
It takes you to visions of alternate futures, as well as pasts, search as a sphere around the Sun, a war-torn Earth of 1939 the Paleocene era of fifty-million years ago, at one alternate reality with machines as the heirs of , and finally to the most fantastic vision of an infinite universe created and ruled over by the final incarnation of the Human Mind. The book closes with the Traveller being returned to his own reality so did he is able to go and save Weena in the far-off age of 800,000 years Hence (I wont give away the ending).
Throughout the book, Stephen Baxter gives you insights into the world of Quantum Physics, bizarre aspect of That brings the book to have a more real-world feel than some odyssey. Stephen Baxter is a true visionary. Someone who is able to see the current trends of science and incorporate them into a masterfully Executed story. This book, in my opinion, is among the greatest sci-fi masterpieces of all time. The story never gets too technical, but never Reaches down to the level of a child-like fantasy story. It is a story not only about time travel, but about the nature of mankind itself. But The Most Important Thing That this book teaches you is That No Matter Where You Are, or what you do, the future is a world of infinite possibilities and it is up to us choose the right ones Throughout our lives. For who knows what the future holds? Possibilities my, friend. Possibilities, indeed.
