A E van Vogt recommends
 The Year of the Quiet Sun (1970) Wilson Tucker "An H G Wells-type time machine takes this chilling story's anti-hero into a nightmare only-a-few-years-from-now future, which many people will feel we have earned by our treatment of minorities. " |  Gods in a Vortex (1979) (Gods in a Vortex, book 1) David Houston "Masterfully written! A work of beauty, power and depth!" |  Timediver's Dawn (1992) (Timegods' World, book 2) L E Modesitt, Jr "Exceptionally brilliant." |
