Time Travel Reading List

Once or twice a month I'll be adding themed reading lists to the blog. These lists won't be comprehensive lists of all the books for any given topic (that's nigh on impossible), but they should give you ideas of other books to look into if you like that topic. Please note that some of these books are out of print, so support your local library or used bookstore!

I've got a few lists to start with but I'm open to suggestions. So if you've read a book and want something similar, either comment on one of these posts or send me an email at: scififanletter@gmail.com. Be sure to leave your name so I can credit you when the list goes up.
