I can't tell you how happy I am to see these books being re-released! If you are a stickler for scientific accuaracy, you won't have room to complain. If you love history, you'll find that these books are acrually based on real world events. Just enough variety is added to make history fit into the story line. And to add a little exta spice..... When your favorite main charactor seems to be in a no-win situation, you CAN NOT assume that he will be saved at the last moment. Simon Hawke is not all all afraid to kill them off.

Like many others, I read the TimeWars series when it first came out and enjoyed it very much then. Now, I have a chance to re-read it and am looking forward to it. The story lines are great and the characters are fun to read about, and yet, some of the sci-fi stuff makes one ponder .... hmmm??

Unfortunately, it seems that Pulpless.com has hired those much talked about monkeys with typewriters to transfer Simon Hawke's words to the Pulpless.com computer files. As a result, the first two books are filled with numerous typos that make reading them like driving in stop and go traffic. I, too, have e-mailed the publishers at Pulpless.com and expressed my dissatisfaction with the quality of the reprints. The only reason I gave it three stars was because of the difficulty in reading through all the typos. Otherwise, this book and the whole series would receive an enthusiastic 5 stars.

Like all of the other books in Simon Hawke's Time Wars series, this volume is a must-read! I strongly encourage time-travel aficionados to jump on the Time Wars bandwagon and experience a truly fascinating and entertaining romp through the ages!

The classic TIMEWARS series is back in print after many years. The first two books of this series will delight readers who like to think and read about time travel and its many paradoxes. Hawke came up with a wonderful way of making history fun as he said in the new intro while dealing with many of the classic problems of timetravel

Be forewarned tho. The copies I recieved had over a hundred typographical errors which seriously impede reading the story. I have written to the Publisher (Pulpless.com) and hope they will make needed corrections before book 3 comes out and hopefully rerelease books 1 and 2
