A beautiful dream of a better future? Or Brandon's worst nightmare...?

Twelve-year-old Brandon Mooney gets the scare of his life when he looks into a mirror...and sees a grizzled old man staring back at him! But things get really weird when the old man steps out of the mirror and introduces himself as Brandon Mooney...age 92!

No way! The old Brandon has traveled back in time 80 years. Why? It turns out the future isn't as great as it was cracked up to be. In fact, it's the pits. So the old man has decided to step back into the present in order to change the future--and he needs Brandon's help.

As Brandon will discover, however, tampering with time can have some unexpected--and very dangerous--consequences.

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME!!!!, February 8, 2002

This review is from: The Outer Limits: The Time Shifter (Mass Market Paperback)

This is maybe my favorite Outer Limits book. The book is artfully woven with splendid plot twists the whole way through. The coolest thing is, if you think about it, you can actually believe that this COULD happen. With the way we're acting now, our world could be that polluted one day, and we might well have the technology to allow a psycho like that to make that time machine. This is one of the freakiest aspects of it. MUST BUY!

(HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: The Outer Limits: The Time Shifter (Mass Market Paperback)

The Time Shifter, third in the Outer Limits series by John Peel, was about how changing the past can effect the future for the worse. Brandon is an ordinary twelve year old kid living in the 1990s. He meets his future self, who wants to change the past because the future turned out badly. However, Brandon discovers that his future self is less than sane and will stop at nothing to change his future - even if it means messing up the present. I thought this was an excellant, exciting book.
