About the book: 2005 / "The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells. Both famous and novice science fiction writers have tried to write its continuation more than once - seriously, ironically, poetically. However, Stephen Baxter's Time Ships, which combines an amazingly careful attitude to Wells's original and an intense, powerful, completely original plot, stands out sharply among the general background - and are truly stunning in their scale. The journey from the beginning of time to the end of the Universe and back begins!
