Time Machine (book Series)
(Byron Preiss Visual Publications)
Time Machine was a series of children's books published by Bantam Books from 1984 to 1989, similar to their more successful Choose Your Own Adventure line of "interactive" novels. Each book was in the second person, with the reader choosing how the story should progress. They were designed by Byron Preiss Visual Publications.
The main difference between the Choose Your Own Adventure series and the Time Machine series was that Time Machine books featured only one ending, forcing the reader to try many different choices until they discovered it. Also, the series taught children basic history about many diverse subjects, from dinosaurs to World War II. Only the sixth book in the series, The Rings of Saturn, departed from actual history; it is set in the future, and features educational content about the solar system.
The line spawned a brief spin-off series for younger readers, the Time Traveler novels.
