Good fun from Ms. Norton. I really enjoy the cultures and aliens she creates. (

This was the first book I ever read. It gave me chills and thrills of something new with every chapter. Adventure into deep space into that held me as a kid, and yet survived to be readable in the digital age as a pure lite adventure for an adult. This story's writing holds firm and crisp enough to withstand time and technological advance. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0441272290, Paperback)

Ace 8th printing features "reversed" Davis Meltzer cover (see backwards signature at bottom!) "Time-travel for archaeologists was a well-guarded secret; but when the remains of an interstellar spaceship are uncovered along with the usual fossils, the time agents must call on a modern Apache Indian, Travis Fox, to guide them in the ways of his ancestors in their trip to the past. But the explorers become trapped in space as well as time, on a mad journey on an automatic starship; not even Travis Fox can tell whether any of them will ever see Earth again."
