Aleksander Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I just started watching the new Fox show Terra Nova and, unlike most people, I loved it. Can someone recommend me some books with a similar theme? Thanks Aleksander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karsa Orlong Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 You could try Julian May's 'Saga of Pliocene Exile' series, starting with The Many-Coloured Land. It too is about a group of humans who travel back in time to try and build a new life. There's a review here: http://www.sfreviews.net/pliocene1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I haven't read them myself but you might like to try Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy: Red Mars, Blue Mars and Green Mars. As the titles suggest, the books are about humans starting a new life on Mars, not Earth, so I'm not sure if it's exactly what you're after.

LittleW Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 It is not about humans, who travel back in time, but I can recommend this one: Richard Dawkins - The Ancestor's Tale It's my long-time-read, really sophisticated, but I enjoy it.

nerriesantra Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Why not try Jules Verne - Journey to the Center of the Earth and The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle; not exactly the same story but those two is an adventure pack story that leads to humans’ big discovery. These also talks about the earth status on the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
