I know I'm not the only one interested in Time Travel books/stories/movies/games (well, not so much for games myself), so I thought I'd share a link that has an astounding list; yes it's wikipedia - don't scold me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_travel_science_fiction

You might see a surprise or two; I certainly did.

Addendum: One noteworthy omission, unless I'm mistaken, is the Babylon 5 series: One of my favorites.

I'm not much of a fan of literal time travel but Bradbury's Sound of Thunder was a brilliant piece for me when I read it many moons ago. But in a sense all writing contains an element of time travel as King says.

Ohhh myyy godddd why is that list so long? Are there other similar types of list on wikipedia, like "list of zombie science fiction", and "list of dragon fantasy", and etc?

But this list is something I will need to take a long look through. I love time travel stories far too much.

I'm not sure I'd put much trust in this Wiki list. A quick glance at the list revealed Alan Garner's "The Weirdstone of Brisingamen", on of my favorite fantasies when I was a child. There is no time travel whatsoever in this book, although the children do have adventures with fantasy characters derived from Welsh mythology. I have no idea why the book is listed as a time travel book or a science fiction book. The children simply discover that ancient, mythic characters are living in our own time, unseen by most of us.

I do recommend the book, and its sequel "The Moon of Gomrath". They are excellent (if you like children's books, similar to the Narnia books in terms of what age groups they would be appropriate for, which, in my case, includes adults).
