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 travelโs 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 dayโs 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 Silverbergโs mastery of not only the science fiction genre, but its most ubiquitous theme. Review: Great writing! - I purchased this book on a whim, have never read Robert Silverberg before but the notion of time travel fascinates me. I've finished the first two stories now and am more than glad that I purchased this. He writes so very well and the plots kept me interested right 'till the end. Review: Entertainment except a few stories - Overall, these short stories are fine, except a few of them had open endings where nothing really happens at the end. A guy travels back in time with his car and life changes dramatically for him and then at the end he just keeps going back in time with his car. I much prefer his novels.

Entertainment except a few stories
Overall, these short stories are fine, except a few of them had open endings where nothing really happens at the end. A guy travels back in time with his car and life changes dramatically for him and then at the end he just keeps going back in time with his car. I much prefer his novels.

Good book
A very good collection of time travelling tales. I loved them all. I hadn't read any of Mr. Silverberg's work before, but he's on my must read list now.

This is a great collection of time travel classics from one of the masters.
As with any anthology, some of the stories contained here are better than others. The best ones are classics. It ends with "Against the current", which is frightening and appealing simultaneously.

Classic Silverberg
Robert Silverberg has of way of making the impossible entertaining. Some classic shorts and some I had never read. Enjoyed the ride.

A mixed bag for sure
Some of the stories were simply excellent. Most were not. I also found the way the stories ended for the most part to be anti-climatic. Worth it for the few good stories - but you may land up skipping half of them like I did.

Great collection of stories
This is a collection of stories that were written over his entire career, and published in different science fiction magazines over the years. I have read a lot of time travel stories, so I was afraid I had already read some of these, but they were all new to me. There were a wide variety of stories, all coming at time travel from different angles. Most won't what I would call typical time travel stories. They were very creative, and I really enjoyed reading all of them.

A trip to the past in more ways than one
"Here I am in a strange city on the far side of time, but the real mystery here is... women! Am I right, fellas?" This anthology of time travel stories also serves as a bit of a retrospective on the writer's career, which spanned the second half of the 20th century - and let's just say it shows in the ways sex, gender, and female characters are featured throughout. I did like the trilobites, though. Can't go too wrong with some trilobites.
