i love to read about time travel. i love jack finney's novels about travelling back in time. my favourite movie is "somewhere in time". but my most favourite time travel novel is "replay" by ken grimwood. it's about a man who died at 43 only to wake up as his 18-year old self but with all memories of the future 25 years intact. he did things differently and took care of himself but died again at exactly the same age, only to wake up once more as his 18-year old self. it kept happening but no matter how he changed his life he ended up dead at 43. want to know what happened? get the book and read it. :-D
Perfectly illustrated Vikki - if there's ever a reprint they should use this as the cover. Try reading 'The Saga of the Exiles' - a quadrology by Julian May.
Kate Atkinson's Life after Life is similar, but with her each life is different and she dies at different ages. I'll have to check out your recommendation.
i guess you just cant alter your fate...
