It was a daunting task. One thing I learned from doing it is that while stories about a theme can be wide-ranging, in different sub-genres with varying approaches to storytelling, the best stories--at least to me--are the ones that touch you. The ones that have heart. And I hope that the nomination for Crime Travel today means that the stories in this book touched a lot of readers just as they did me. Thank you to everyone who read it and nominated it. <a href="https://bit.ly/3eYoQLd" rel="nofollow">https://bit.ly/3eYoQLd</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655214447009324025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-72953567787430989512020-06-18T22:47:21.326-04:002020-06-18T22:47:21.326-04:00This short story collection features 15 stories fr...This short story collection features 15 stories from various authors that combine time travel and crime fiction. The stories are very creative, involving a variety of methods of time travel from people who build machines to those who stumble upon strange ways to get back in time. The periods range from people traveling to the present, to those traveling to Shakespeare’s England, a New Jersey beach town in the 1970’s, and a couple trips to the 1960’s to name a few. Meanwhile, we get a couple capers, a locked room mystery, and a hard-boiled PI among other great stories.<br /><br />This is a very strong collection of stories. While a couple weren’t quite to my taste, I can see how others would love them and it was a very minor point. I laughed at a few of the stories, another couple made me cry, in a good way. Most importantly, I had fun. There are so many great stories in this collection, you’ll be glad you picked it up. And if you don’t get it now, you just might have to come back in time and yell at yourself for putting it off and depriving yourself of the joys of reading these <a href="https://couponforless.com/coupon-category/books" rel="nofollow">books</a> right away.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07543302275518621582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-52811634174483281062020-06-10T00:22:56.757-04:002020-06-10T00:22:56.757-04:00Thanks, everyone, for your kind words.
