A decent audio short story of science fiction involving a time "bomb."Read 12.3.20. Noting date here as I don't want this to count towards my reading goal for the year.
A theoretical model for time travel is developed, and then it is tested."A negative mass, that`s a plus..."In theoretical physics, negative mass is a type of exotic matter whose mass is of opposite sign to the mass of normal matter. Such matter would violate one or more energy conditions and show some strange properties such as the oppositely oriented acceleration for negative mass. It is used in certain speculative hypothetical technologies, such as time travel to the past [wikipedia.org, 2021]...
A very entertaining and puzzling time travel story that questions the nature of time travel related paradoxes and the (intelligent?, malevolent?, benign?, indifferent?) cosmic forces at work that guard against them. This one will make your brain hurt :)
While looking for my next audiobook, I chanced upon this time travel short story by my favorite audiobook duo of author/performer, Dennis E Taylor/Ray Porter. What a treat!Although my brain hurt from the timey wimey wibbly wobbly story, it was over far too quickly and it was brilliant.
Very cool time travel story. I would love to see what the author could do on this subject with a novel or at least novella format.
Interesting little story, even if repetitive. Liked the last few minutes best.
Notes:Fun, short that's complete within itself but leaves me wanting more.4 Stars for Audio & Short combined
This was a decent short story about time travel and variables that could be caused by traveling in time.
Ah more please
Huh, two timey-wimeys in a row. Very short listen, but was still really good?
Jack and Diane? Really?
Brilliant. I love short stories like these...especially with Ray Porter as the narrator. I found myself gaping with my mind racing at the possibilities of the story. I almost wish it was the length of an actual book because I would've devoured it. The two mentions of Timelords was A+ in my book too.
An audiobook (of a short story, I believe. I don't do research)This was thirty minutes including the intro where that guy sounds like a voice actor from a 1930's H.G. Wells radio drama for 5 seconds. I happened to put it on at work, and finish it at work. I've always liked focused time travel fiction that plays around with physics. So this was that, nothing too endearing, just to the point and smart enough to make me ask questions about time travel. Something I'd enjoy hearing while driving for
This was a nice, short audiobook. I love time-travel stories and I liked how this one seems low budget. What would happen if a few regular college professors make a time-bomb? I've never read a Dennis E. Taylor book before and this was a good introduction. Going to check out his other books!
