Publisher Description
The long-awaited sequel to Time And Again
Si Morley is back and the world may never be the same.
When Time and Again was published in 1970, it immediately developed a loyal following that has grown with each passing year. Now, twenty-five years later, Jack Finney returns to the same magical territory and finds Ruben Prien still at work with the Project, still dreaming of altering man's fate by going back in time to adjust events...to interfere, some might say, with destiny.
Once again, the conduit to that bygone era is Simon Morley, the man who actually proved himself capable of traveling back and forth in time. This time, he does so with a grand purpose: an attempt to prevent World War I.
A tale that is both thrilling and nostalgic, magical and terrifying, ultimately charming and full of suspense, From Time To Time is the sequel a generation has been waiting for.

"This book had great moments and fell flat in others. Once again I liked the glimpses and photographs of New York City in the past. I was interested in the possibility of preventing World War I and the consequences of this. Unfortunately, the ending left me dissatisfied."

From Time to Time Listener Reviews

" Very different feel from the movie -- read this a long time ago, but still keep a feeling of that hotel room "
— Ginny, 2/20/2014 -
" Not nearly as good as the first book. In fact, this was a fairly pointless novel. Basically he learns that he can't change the past. Plus he spends a lot of time experiencing New York in the 1910s. "
— Ian, 2/19/2014 -
" ...and he did it again!! "
— Pam, 2/8/2014 -
" Not quite as enjoyable as Time and Again, but still an enjoyable read with a similar fictional / non-fictional plot. The character development is well constructed and the story is just fun to read. "
— Jeremy, 2/7/2014 -

— Brandon, 9/20/2013 -
