Free time travel books

RJ Rummel is a professor of political science. He has written six novels about a couple that travel back in time to chage history. It is called the Never Again series. The six novels are downloadable for free as PDFs. Enjoy!

Quote:
The six novels in this series are a what-if, alternative history. Two lovers are sent back in time to 1906 with modern weapons and 38 billion 1906 dollars. Their mission is to prevent the rise of fascism and communism, avert the major 20th Century wars, including World Wars I and II, and forestall such democides as those by Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot. -- RJ Rummel

They are time travel stories. Perhaps they will have been written soon.

I have a hard time seeing modern weapons being helpful in averting wars in the long term. The story line doesn't sound very plausible. I suppose if the characters or writing are good enough, they might still be worth reading, but I think I'd like more of a review first.

They are in my queue. I have reduced them to txt files. But I suspect you would do a better review. I have been following your Heinlein discussion.
