On the hidden planet of Ceer, Althair tells all the little pups and pammies of the time when
he accompanied the brave Will Hawkins and the chief pilot Jonna Verret as they traveled back
in time to save Earth from the Meercaths from Orel who had the power to blow up the Earth and
would use it whether the Earthlings revealed the secret of time travel or not.
In my first
semester of graduate school, I bought the first issue of Omni, which included this

Tyne-and-Wear) sent me a pointer to this story as well as J.B. Priestley’s time plays.
