Rating:  Summary: Time travelers , aliens and the Beaker Traders of Earth Review: This is one of the stories in the series of the aliens known as "Baldies" and their science of time travel. The two major countries of the world are in a competition to control time and have been using technology recovered from Earth's past , where spaceships from another civilization of the stars have crashed.This is a little 007 , rayguns , and historical facts , which collide in the Early European Continent. The story deals with two main characters and one of them is Ross Murdock. The Murdock character appears in later books of this series. Lots of good historical knowledge.
Rating:  Summary: An all time great Sci Fi book. Review: This was the first Sci Fi book I read 35 odd years ago. And it launched me into reading all her other stories and the other great Sci Fi authors too. It is fun to reread this book now for it takes place late in the 20th century. The Cold War fears of that time (remember it was written in the 50's) are all thru the book and very familiar to one who grew up then. This book and the following three are still very good reads. They are full of adventure and bold ideas and you do wnat them to end, And now I see where Ms Norton and another author are writing new Time Trader books. I cannot wait!!!
