Christian Time Travel and Alternate History
Sam Batterman Wayback Geralyn Beauchamp The Call Amy Deardon A Lever Long Enough T. L. Higley Tracy (who is female) has written some excellent novels in the speculative category. She's great in all aspects of writing, but I think she really shines when she has stories that take place in historical eras. Tracy's Fallen from Babel was a time travel novel that constituted one of the four books we launched Realms with. Watch for a new series from Tracy releasing through B&H.Retrovirus Marduk's Tablet Fallen from Babel Douglas Hirt Doug's Cradleland Chronicles is a great envisioning of life at the beginning of mankind's time on earth. RiverOak, who published this series, is trying some innovative things with podcasting for these books.Flight to Eden Quest for Atlan The Fall of the Nephilim Randall Ingermanson I wrote about Randy in the Christian Science Fiction section, but since several of his novels are more accurately time travel, I've put them here. Transgression won a Christy award for excellence in Christian fiction.Transgression Premonition Retribution Gilbert Morris Gilbert Morris is a well-known author of Christian historical novels, but he has also written speculative fiction. Though there are several genres represented here I've put them all under this one category. The Omega Trilogy is technothriller fiction that he co-wrote with Lynn and Alan Morris. The Far Fields is a fantasy series co-written with Robert Funderburk, now out of print. The other series are all for young adults. (Complete series not shown)The Beginning of Sorrows Fallen Stars, Bitter Water Beyond the River The Remnant Dark Spell Over Morlandria Wizards of the Galaxy Escape from the Red Comet Revenge of the Space Pirate Invasion of the Killer Locusts Dangers of the Rainbow Nebula The Frozen Space Pilot Secret of the Planet Makon The White Dragon of Sharnu Attack of the Denebian Starship The Final Kingdom Empress of the Underworld The Sword of Camelot Voyage of the Dolphin Escape with the Dream Maker The Strange Creatures of Dr. Korbo The Dangerous Voyage Vanishing Clues Nancy Moser Nancy is best known for her women's fiction and thrillers, but two of her novels are clearly speculative. Time Lottery won the Christy Award for the visionary category. I was honored to be her editor.Time Lottery Second Time Around Brian Reaves Brian is a young writer with a bright future in Christian speculative fiction. His Portal is a self-published novel about friends who invent a time machine and try to repair their past mistakes. I think Brian's real forte is in supernatural thrillers but so far none of those novels of his has been published.Portal Stolen Lives Jeremy Robinson Jeremy Robinson writes time travel novels with a great premise. His first novel, at least, is one of the fine POD (print-on-demand) titles I'm proud to promote. Note, though, that he tends to use profanity in his fiction.The Didymus Contingency Raising the Past Richard J. Sutcliffe Rick's Web site, Arjay Books, attracts lots of hits and scores very well on Google searches. He has some good information on Christian SF and fantasy novels there. Rick is Canadian and is a professor of mathematics and computing science at the university level. His Interregnum series is "alternate-history Irish-flavoured Christian science fiction" that "deals with a variety of technology and ethical issues in thought-provoking plots set on alternate earths." How cool is that? As far as I know, Rick's series is the only Christian alternate history fiction on this list. Certainly it is one of the few, and I applaud his efforts both as a novelist and a Web advocate for Christian speculative fiction. Note that the The General and The Nexus are available only as e-books. The first three are are also available through Amazon as print versions. Volumes 6 and 7 are in development.The Peace The Worlds of the Timestream The Exile The General The Nexus |
