John W. Campbell wrote this for a blurb for this tale when it
appeared in "Analog" "He contracted for a charter trip -- but the
man who hired his spacer wasn't quite a man, it turned out -- and
he wanted more than service!"
James H. Schmitz was a heck of a writer, and this story -- "The
Winds of Time" -- is fascinating stuff. Star ships, aliens from the
future, time travel, romance, cannibalism, pet humans, and
mute-but-brilliant aliens. . . . and, of course, it's got a hero
who solves every problem by being smarter and trickier and
better-prepared than we'd ever imagine being. But what would you
expect? This story first appeared in John W. Campbell's "Analog."
"Analog" heroes did it with their brains. Us? We have to work.
