Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Time traders by Andre Norton


I have read Norton for more years and I can remember. This story says the first printing was in November of 2000. I suspect that it was printed by someone else prior to then. The technology is somewhat dated but Norton as a storyteller is outstanding. The US is in a race with the Russians to find a source of advanced technology. The race is because the Russians have found some trove of advanced technology and the US needs to prevent  the Russians from getting ahead of them.

This is a first book in the series. The protagonists are sent back in time to try and discover where the advanced technology the Russians have found originated. The story has a limited relationship to the Russians and more so to the adaptation of the protagonist to the advanced technology they discover.

Their adventures and explanations of alien culture provide the excitement to the book.

I recommend it.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
