Some time displacement book suggestions, please?

[senlac]

I am a great fan of the Time Displacement type story. The sort that Stirling (Nantucket ), Flint (1632), Fortschen (The Lost Regiment) produce. I have come across odd stand alone story, modern military in Ancient Rome for example and of course the superb "Lest Darkness Fall", which I first read back in the early '60s. Can anyone suggest authors/titles?

Custer At the Alamo by Gregory Urbach In this story George Armstrong Custer and his men never make it to Little Bighorn in 1876 . Instead he and his men get displaced in time to 1836 Texas and the Alamo.

Possibly Harry Turtledove, The Lost Legion of Videssos - more a parallel dimension with a Roman legion going into an alternate world.

Janissaries by Jerry Pournelle sort of fits this.

What about A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain?

There's also Max and Me and the Time Machine, which was recently mentioned in the book search forum: time travel story about kids that traveled back in time and inhabited the bodies of knights. read in 1995ish

More seriously, Timeline by Michael Crichton is mentioned in that thread.

Yep - great fan of Turtledove, but I have not read the Videssos series. Thanks

I really liked Videssos but found other Turtledove books a bit too multi-threaded for my taste.

11/22/63 by Stephen King.

Yes , I really enjoyed this. Terrible tv adaptation but the original book was one of King's best.

Every book I read takes time to read.

So the point is they all are time-displacement novels.
