Suggest Good Time Travel Novels
Oh gosh, the girl who leapt through time, that was nice! Have you seen the animation movie too?
I feel ashamed I don't know any other of the books you mentioned ...and my e-books/audiobooks pile keeps growing and growing, darn. So yeah, that's going to be my signature.

+1 for Outlander and Doomsday book.
Just finished 'The Shadow out of Time' - By H.P Lovecraft (Love me some Lovecraft creepiness) Will have to check out the ones you've suggested though. |

"The End of Eternity" by Isaac Asimov. It is a little dated, but still a good read.
No Memes allowed!

I'll chip in "The Shining Girls" by Lauren Beukes.

" I have seen the movie, but never read the book. The movie's not bad. |

Sphere is a fun book. I don't think MC wrote bad books. I even liked his non-science fiction stuff.
'A Wrinkle In Time' pops into my head. I read it quite awhile ago but remember enjoying it. |

Just found a potential candidate - Hawk among the sparrows. Reading it now.
Damnit! Just finished the online preview and there is no online version of the full book available!! Last edited by Darkfyre#6647 on Feb 10, 2016, 10:48:51 AM

Technically, there's quite a bit of time travel in the Hitch-hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, but that might not be the sort of stuff you're looking for.
Also, you might want to have a go at Making History (by Stephen Fry). It's more politic-fiction than science-fiction, but time travel is central to the plot. Also, in case you haven't seen it, the film Primer has a nice and consistent take on time travel, which is rare. But it might give you a headache. Save a Carrot, Eat a Rabbit!

I read fantasy novels as opposed to time-travel ones but some that spring to mind that have time travel elements are Julian May's Saga of a Pliocene Exile; Stephen Donaldson's Thomas Covenant Chronicles and maybe even Katherine Kerr's Deverry series (lot of jumping around time-wise but more I think re-incarnation than time travel!)
Maybe not your cup of tea but just thought I'd mention them ^_^ added: Also Simon Hawke's Time Wars books although these may be hard to find now. If you make something idiot-proof, the universe creates a better idiot. Last edited by westiedeb#2748 on Feb 10, 2016, 4:34:36 PM
