set of three books by Andre Norton

Ace Books, 1962 and 1965

**Set of 3 books**

Quest Crosstime, first printing, 1965
On a parallel Earth very similar to ours geographically, but in which events of history took a very different turn, our world's Blake Walker had become a citizen. He thought himself trusted until the disappearance of his patron's daughters, the rebellion of the time-travel engineers, and the discovery of a plot to use time-travel to loot a hundred other worlds. Blake's search through parallel worlds, his adventures with alien empires and hostile beings, combine to make this one of Norton's most unusual and exciting novels.

The Defiant Agents, second edition, 1962
The USA and the USSR are populating a distant planet with colonists in a hypnotic state of regression, with the Russians reliving the times of the Mongol hordes of Genghis Khan, and the Americans are all Apaches, recreating the days when they were a proud warrior race. The conflicts of these groups with each other and with an even more dangerous force from beyond the stars makes an imaginative and inventive tale.


The X Factor, second edition, 1965
Mimir was a world of strange relics, of beasts that were not beasts, and of a ruined city whose shadows spoke of a higher and weirder civilization than any the galaxy had yet discovered. And it was Diskan Fentress' lot to meet The X Factor head on, and to settle a planet's fate with his reaction.

Condition: All three books are in good to very good condition. Quest Crosstime is the most worn of the three, with small finger creases and small impact dings, slight corner wear. Name written inside front cover and on first interior page, and a yellow highlighter was used to highlight the description on the back cover and on the first interior page. Other book titles were underlined in ink, and there is a tear on the first interior page's edge. The remainder of the interior pages are unmarked, and clean. All pages are crisp and tight, although yellowed with normal aging. The other two books have very good covers, with very slight impact dings but no visible creasing, and names written inside the front cover/on title page.
