Summary: "The Winds of Time" by James H. Schmitz is a science fiction novel written during the early 1960s. The story revolves around a space charter crewed by Gefty Rammer, who unwittingly gets involved in a dangerous adventure after his vessel is caught in a mysterious temporal current, pulling him into unknown dangers and revelations of time manipulation. The narrative explores themes of trust, secrecy, and the consequences of meddling with the fabric of time. As the tale progresses, a seemingly routine charter trip to survey a lifeless sun system takes a perilous turn when the ship, the "Silver Queen", is thrown out of normspace by unknown forces. The ship's passengers, Gefty and his colleague Kerim Ruse, must deal with their enigmatic client Mr. Maulbow, who harbors secrets linked to advanced time-travel technology. Following a series of tense encounters—including a menacing creature called a janandra that serves Maulbow—Gefty discovers that his client's motivations might not be as benign as they appear. After a climactic confrontation that sees Gefty overpower Maulbow, he learns the true nature of their situation and the implications of their journey. Ultimately, they manage to escape the dangerous time current, returning to normspace and a profound realization of their adventure's consequences. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
