Yet another modern pastiche of one of the pulps' most successful and
long-running series. This one lacks the originality and campy charm
of Farmer's Escape From Loki (RR#146), however, so you'd best give it a miss
unless you're already a fan of the series or have a technical
antiquarian interest in the material.

%G ISBN 0-812-50619-7
Yet another author's-choice anthology. As usual, it contains a bunch of
first-class stories, all previously anthologized and all quite familiar
to the serious fan. A reasonable introduction to classic SF for the
curious.
%T The Time Patrol
%A Poul Anderson
%I TOR
%D October 1991
%O clothbound, US$21.95
%P 458
%G ISBN 0-312-85231-2
This book collects all of Poul Anderson's classic "Time Patrol" stories except
the full-length novel The Shield of Time in one volume, plus one
new one. If you know your SF, that's all the recommendation you need. If you
don't, it should be. Enjoy!
