''Collision Course'' (aka ''Collision with Chronos'') is the fourth novel by the science fiction author Barrington J. Bayley. The novel was inspired by the time travel theories of J. W. Dunne. The plot centers on the collision of two alternate "presents", with disastrous implications for reality. ==Literary significance and reception== Rhys Hughes, in his review of Bayley's work, ranked the novel as Bayley's third-best but still the most original time paradox story in modern SF, noting that, for the first time, Bayley's novels had reached the high standards of his short stories.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Annihilation Factotum: The work of Barrington J. Bayley )〕 John Clute described ''Collision Course'', along with ''Empire of Two Worlds'' and ''Annihilation Factor'', as "variously successful" but held that ''The Fall of Chronopolis'' was Bayley's most fully realised time travel story.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Bayley, Barrington J. )〕 Reviewing the novel in ''Vector'', Brian Stableford criticised Bayley's tendency to arbitrarily switch between viewpoints but concluded that "()ou will find it a rewarding experience."〔"Collision with Chronos", ''Vector 83'', September 1977〕 In 1990, ''Collision Course'' won the Japanese Seiun Award for best translated novel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Collision Course (Bayley novel)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
