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."

— Jennifer (4 out of 5 stars)

    " 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. "

    " I enjoyed this book, but nearly as much as Time and Again. As another reviewer writes, this book just didn't capture the wonder of traveling back in time as well as the first. This one is still good, I just found it a bit disappointing that it didn't came closer to being as good as Time and Again. "
