End of Eternity is one of my favorite Asimov novels. He isn't well known for it, but it's probably the best written and realistic stories of time travel. I inherited my grandad's rather large collection of Asimov books, and while I've read all of them more than once and added every book I can find to the collection, I swear there is always at least one more novel or short story out there.TRP wrote:Re-read Asimov's The End of Eternity, and it's still entertaining and interesting. With just a tad updating, it'd make for a decent movie, and the annoying guy from Big Bang Theory would be a good fit for the main character. I know, I know. Almost everyone on that show is annoying, but I mean the one that's intentionally annoying. Sheldon, I think is his character name.
What you said about Big Bang theory is sacrilegious to his work though.
This summer I'm rereading through all of Robert E. Howard's work, reading all the Savage Sword of Conan comics, and I'm almost done reading the current Dark Horse series. It's partly for pleasure, and partly for work on a Conan OD&D alternate system I'm doing.
I've been creating a journal of Conan's adventures, writing down the things he encounters. With the stories that have been in the news about the Pliocene period and homo bones that were found in that French cave, I'm beginning to wonder if maybe different races of man really did coexist or live in conflict in our distant past.
