Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"A Witch in Time" by Herb Williams is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story revolves around time travel, specifically exploring themes of love and fate as a protagonist finds himself entangled in the life of a young woman accused of witchcraft in the 17th century. The narrative combines elements of historical fiction and speculative technology, painting a vivid picture of both the past and the consequences of meddling with time. The plot follows Nat Lyon, a time traveler from the 25th century who inadvertently saves Abigaile Goodyeare, a young woman about to be executed for witchcraft. As Nat takes Abby to various historical settings in an attempt to keep her safe, they develop a deep bond that transcends the centuries. Their journey leads them to face the realities of time meddling, as Nat grapples with both the joy of his affection for Abby and the ever-looming threat of the Time Inspection Corps, which seeks to correct Nat's interference with history. The story culminates in a tragic confrontation that challenges their love and the very fabric of their existence.
