    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    "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.
