Time Travel & Alternate History
Short Story Reviews


The following reviews of Time Travel and Alternate Universe Short Stories are organized alphabetically by author.

This is but a very tiny fraction of time travel short stories that exist, basically the ones I have had time to read and write reviews for. These short stories have appeared in an anthology, collection, or magazine. Where possible I have provided copyright dates and the where I found the story. Many of these works of short fiction have appeared in other publications as well. For a definitive list of short fiction and where they have been published I encourage you to visit the Locus Magazine's

The Locus Index to Science Fiction

The Locus Index is grouped by Short Fiction Prior to 1984, 1984-1998, and then each individual year after that.
