L. Sprague de Camp, Frederik Pohl, David Drake : Lest Darkness Fall Related Stories before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Lest Darkness Fall Related Stories:

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. One of the best by one of the masters.By ElisabethOne of the best sf books ever. Plus some of the stories by other great sf authors who were inspired by the original. If you like sf even a little bit, you'll love this. Even though it was written in the 30s, it's not dated at all. Quite a feat for any type of story, but especially for sf.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Just WonderfulBy Dave CarverEvery bit the classic as promised. The related stories all do a wonderful job of paying Homage to the original as well as expanding upon it in creative ways. It's always a pleasure to go back to the stories that were the genesis of so many other great tales.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Short but decent alt history bookBy Ryan SaputoThe story of Martin Padway is a very interesting one. Throughout the whole story, I was intrigued and wondering what was going to happen next. However, to my disappointment, the book itself is pretty short, and I reading it in 2 days. While it doesn't show in its language, the books age does show in its portrayal of the middle ages as the "dark ages".

Rarely do books have such a great influence on a genre as Lest Darkness Fall has had on . Frequently quoted as one of the 'favorite' books of many of the masters of the field, this book by L. Sprague de Camp helped establish time-travel as a solid sub-genre of science fiction. An indication of the influence and longevity of the book is by the number of best-selling writers who have written stories in direct response to, or influenced by, Lest Darkness Fall. This new volume also includes three such stories by Frederik Pohl, David Drake and S. M. Stirling written over a period of forty-three years-a testament to the timelessness of the book. Similar, thematically, to Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, the book tells the tale of Martin Padway who, as he is walking around in modern Rome, is suddenly transported though time to 6th Century Rome. Once in ancient Rome, Padway (now Martinus Paduei Quastor) embarks on an ambitious project of single-handedly changing history. L. Sprague de Camp was a student of history (and the author of a number of popular works on the subject). In Lest Darkness Fall he combines his extensive knowledge of the workings of ancient Rome with his extraordinary imagination to create one of the best books of time travel ever written.
