Book Description

1 Nov 2000
DRAFTED INTO THE ARMY OF TIME

Intelligence agents have uncovered something which seems beyond belief, but the evidence is incontrovertible: the USAs greatest adversary on the world stage is sending its agents back through time! And someone or something unknown to our history is presenting them with technologies -- and weapons -- far beyond our most advanced science. We have only one option: create time-transfer technology ourselves, find the opposition's ancient source...and take it dawn.

When small-time criminal Ross Murdock and Apache rancher Travis Fox stumble separately onto America's secret time travel project, Operation Retrograde, they are faced with a challenge greater than either could have imagined possible. Their mere presence means that they know too much to go free. But Murdock and Fox have a thirst for adventure, and Operation Retrograde offers that in spades.

Both men will become time agents, finding reserves of inner heroism they had never expected. Their journeys will take the battle to the enemy, from ancient Britain to prehistoric America, and finally to the farthest reaches of interstellar space...

5.0 out of 5 stars Still Strong After All These Years 27 Oct 2002
By Emil L. Posey - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
A reprint of the 1958 edition, this was like finding an old friend. I first read this in 1958 or 1959, when I was about 10 years old. I remembered snippets of it ever since and wondered if I would ever come across it again. The story is just as fresh as it was then. Indeed, I looked for some disclaimer that it had been updated, but found none. Other than the lack of scientific explanation underlying key aspects of the plot, thus dating its style somewhat, this was a remarkably prescient piece. And far from sophomoric in the bad sense, it appeals to the kid still inside me. I enjoyed it as much now as I did when I was 10. It has time travel, Russians, aliens, prehistoric tribes, space ships, personal struggle and triumph...what more can you want in a science fiction yarn? From over 40 years ago, it still rates 5 stars!

4.0 out of 5 stars Andre Norton is female...just FYI.... 14 Jun 2012
By Jerald S Jckson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
While Alice Norton used Andre as a pen name to ensure acceptance of her works by the public, it has been public knowledge for say...the last 40 years that Andre Norton was female and a pretty darn good author at that. Yes the materials in these novels is dated. It was early science fiction and rivaled nearly any of her peers or forefathers in sci fi.

If nothing else she was one of the most prolific sci fi authors ever, with a list that rivals our current day James Patterson. I dont ask that you give her a break for being a female author...but at the very least recognize it and the struggles that she faced.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now read wonderful stories crafted by a fantastic story teller. 5 Dec 2012
By Merwyn J. Miller - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
Now read wonderful stories crafted by a fantastic story teller. The Time Traders are a wonderful set of stories created by Andre Norton marking a new genre in science fiction. Ms. Norton entered the sci-fi writing world as a novice who was reluctantly published by any of the publishing houses as she was a woman writing in a male dominated medium. True to form, Ms. Norton was the purveyor of a large body of work with series including Time Traders, Witch World, Beastmaster, and a vast number of imaginative novels of far away planets and high adventure.
This hardcover edition of The Time Traders and Galactic Derelict are the first in a series of novels involving espionage, time travel, alien technology, faraway planets, and noteworthy protagonists. READ THE NOVEL AND ESCAPE THE MUNDANE!!!
