|author=Justin Richards
|rating=4
|genre=Science Fiction
|summary=Guy Pentecross, has been transferred from active duty to the Foreign Office after an injury at Dunkirk, a move which seems to bring him both relief and frustration. On the one hand Dunkirk has obviously affected him, on the other he feels guilty doing a desk job while others fight the war. When chance events lead him to the fringes of a conspiracy, Guy is unable to resist the urge to be more actively involved in the war, but he is about to uncover a conspiracy beyond his wildest imagination. Very soon Guy will be fighting not only for Britain, but for the fate of the earth itself.

|summary=President John F Kennedy had been warned about going to Dallas - he himself referred to it as 'nut country' - but, conscious of the upcoming 1964 presidential elections, he needed to bring some support from the city onside and that was why he and the First Lady found themselves in the motorcade which swept into Dealey Plaza on 22 November 1963. There can be few people who are not aware of what happened next, but Jonathan Mayo has presented a chronology of events over the next four days (''four days, three murders, hundreds of stories'', as the cover says) demonstrating the pressure under which the officials involved were working and the dreadful impact of what happened..

|title=The Time Traveller's Almanac
|author=Anne VanderMeer and Jeff VanderMeer
|rating=4
|genre=Anthologies
|summary=From H.G Wells to ''Doctor Who'', there is something about a good time-travel story that has the power to ignite the imagination in a way unique to the genre. Perhaps it is due to the fact that when dealing with the subject of time travel, literally ''anything is possible''. Well, almost anything...apart from going back in time and killing your Grandfather, which we know would cause an almighty paradox and probably destroy the universe.
