| Summary | "Key Out of Time" by Andre Norton is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. It explores the adventures of Ross Murdock, a Time Agent, who, along with his team, sets out to investigate the mysterious world of Hawaika. As they search for signs of an ancient civilization, the team encounters unforeseen challenges, which could have dire consequences for their mission and the world they inhabit. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a lush and seemingly idyllic environment, but hints at an underlying mystery that beckons discovery. Ross, initially frustrated by their lack of findings, stands upon a rocky ledge overlooking a tranquil beach, contemplating the enigmatic past of Hawaika, which diverges drastically from the information they received from an ancient voyage tape. Alongside him is Karara, a member of their settlement team, whose interactions with Ross are tinged with tension and growing camaraderie. Their quest for knowledge becomes urgent as they begin to realize that their tranquil surroundings may conceal threats, including encounters with ancient alien technology and predatory sea life, culminating in the precarious need to make vital decisions that could alter the course of their fate.
