Synopsis

In "The Time Traders," Andre Norton masterfully intertwines science fiction and adventure to explore the complexities of time travel and human consciousness. Set against a backdrop of Cold War tensions, this novel chronicles the journey of Ross Murdock, a young man recruited into a covert government agency that investigates time manipulation by hostile civilizations. Norton's prose is both accessible and richly imaginative, reflecting the era's fascination with technology and alternate realities, while her deft character development invites readers to ponder the moral ramifications of altering time. Through vivid world-building and fast-paced action, Norton crafts a narrative that remains relevant in the ongoing discourse surrounding ethics in science.

    Richard Drumm might still look like a normal fifteen-year-old kid from Ohio, but over the last few months, he’s become much, much more. The heir apparent of a galaxy-spanning kingdom, he’s survived assassination attacks, been evolved by the energies of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and been given powers far beyond the abilities of other humans. 
    But challenges lie ahead. For one thing, he can’t always control his powers, a development that is embarrassing at best and downright dangerous at worst—such as when he teleports places without knowing when or where it will happen. He’s also still the target of the devious Senator Spartacus, who will stop at nothing to prevent Richard from taking the throne. And his confrontation with the great nemesis looms on the horizon. 
    Fortunately for Richard, his allies will do whatever it takes to keep him safe, including the foxlike Amber, the love of his life, his double, Henry, and the enigmatic synthetic lifeform AAL. Richard will soon find, however, that their efforts will cause him more trouble than he thought possible—both in his new home of Krel and back home on Earth. 
    An Unlikely Love Story is the explosive second volume in the Richard series, a cosmic coming-of-age story that spans the galaxy.

    Anthem is Ayn Rand’s nightmarish story of a dystopian future world in which individuality does not exist. Every human being is identified by a number, not a name, with the personal pronoun “I” strictly prohibited. The “great WE” serve the collective of mankind from birth to death with no rights or personal freedom. Each life is managed, directed, and policed by a society that dictates how each person is raised, educated, and employed. No one is allowed to be alone and personal expression of thoughts, ideas, and desires is forbidden. Any resistance to authority or rule-breaking is punishable, with the worst offenders subject to horrific public execution. 
    Within this world lives one young man, Equality 7-2521, who longs for a different world. His vague knowledge of the “Unmentionable Times” that preceded his society drives his quest to escape. Anthem is his story of finding the passage back to a past that ultimately holds his future freedom and the promise of a new mankind.
