Записки путешественника во времени - Дэвид Голдблат

Кроме собственных исследований и наблюдений, временны́е инспекторы агентства ВЭГ пользовались работами ученых, у которых нет доступа к технологии «Времясвищ». Тем не менее, несмотря на их статичность во времени и пространстве, мы можем поручиться за достоверность их работ. Все это – рекомендованная для прочтения перед путешествием литература. И, конечно же, помните, что ни одну из этих книг не рекомендуется брать с собой.
