Recently I bought a book called "Time Ships" by Stephen Baxter while I was out on a trip. It's apparently a sequel to The Time Machine by H. G. Wells, and so far it's turned out to be quite an interesting read.
Has anyone else read it? ;D

Yes it's a good sequel to the time machine. You will come across a character called Nebogipfel, at first I thought this was a name invented by Baxter, until I read the short story by Wells 'The Chronic Argonauts' the same character appears in there too. Enjoy, It's a good one, especially if you like alternative history books.  |

I do. I find them very interesting.
That's an interesting tidbit about where Nebogipfel came from. I thought Baxter had invented the name, too. Is he identified as a Morlock in "Argonauts"?

No not as a Morlock but he is described as a strange wizard-like character, if I remember correctly. It's a few years ago that I read it so I don't remember clearly.  |
