In recent years numerous films, television series, comic books, graphic novels and video games have featured time travel narratives, with characters jumping backward, forward and laterally through time. No rules govern time travel in these stories. Some characters move by machine, some by magic, others by unexplained means. Sometime travelers can alter the timeline, while others are prevented from causing temporal aberrations. The fluid forms of imagined time travel have fascinated audiences and prompted debate since at least the 19th century. What is behind our fascination with time travel? What does it mean to be out of one's own era? How do different media tell these stories and what does this reveal about the media's relationship to time? This collection of new essays--the first to address time travel across a range of media--answers these questions by locating time travel narratives within their cultural, historical and philosophical contexts. Texts discussed include Doctor Who, The Terminator, The Georgian House, Save the Date, Back to the Future, Inception, Source Code and others.

This is the second book I have authored under the inspiration of the Lord. My first book, From Light to Darkness to Glory, is my biography. My current book, The Time Traveler: Gerards Odyssey, will be available soon. The second book in the trilogy is entitled Time Tripping and Other Planets, and the Anthology of the Time Traveler will be coming out late 2016. With Gods help, I shall succeed. My hope is to create a trilogy stemming from the Time Traveler for readers young and old who believe in time travel and how it could positively affect our way of life in the future.
