There are certain basic things that run through several of the books. 1) A war on Earth that creates a sub-culture of people. Sometimes these are scientists, other times religious, and sometimes ethnic. (Planets are settled by Africans or religious sects.) After the initial spread to the stars, there is again some sort of inter-planetary war. This includes several races from different solar systems. During this war there are areas of displaced people, Dipples. There are also planets that contain the remains of races the came before, Forerunners. There is also an inter-stellar trade. I don't believe that Andre Norton ever dreamed these were one universe. I don't think that I'd make ONE time-line to cover all of her books. The following is from the 1994 Bibliography. It lists each of Andre Norton's series in the order in that series. ASTRA (setting) The Stars Are Ours! A22 Star Born, A32 BEAST MASTER Hosteen Storm, protagonist The Beast Master, A36 Lord of Thunder, A48 JANUS (setting) Naill Renfro, protagonist Judgment on Janus, A50 Victory on Janus, A64 MOON MAGIC Krip Vorlund and Maelen, protagonists Moon of Three Rings, A62 Exiles of the Stars, A86 Flight in Yiktor, A165 Dare to Go A-Hunting, A185 SHANN LANTEE, protagonist and/or common character Storm Over Warlock, A42 Ordeal in Otherwhere, A54 Forerunner Foray, A99 SOLAR QUEEN Dane Thorson, protagonist Sargasso of Space..., A24 Plague Ship..., A28 Voodoo Planet, A39 Postmarked the Stars, A76 Redline the Stars, A207 DERELICT FOR TRADE, A228 A MIND FOR TRADE, A230 STAR KA’AT Star Ka’at, A117 Star Ka’at World, A133 Star Ka’ats and the Plant People, A140 Star Ka’ats and the Winged Warriors, A149 TIME WAR Ross Murdock, Travis Fox, and Gordon Ashe, protagonists and/or common characters The Time Traders, A35 Galactic Derelict, A37 The Defiant Agents, A46 Key Out of Time, A51 Firehand, A211 FORERUNNER Simsa and Thom Chan-li, protagonists Forerunner, A145 Forerunner: The Second Venture, A160 ZERO STONE Murdoc Jern and Eet, protagonists The Zero Stone, A73 Uncharted Stars, A78 ZACATHANS as protagonists Brother to Shadows, A204 Dare to Go A-Hunting, A185 [Zacanthan] Star Rangers, A16 Uncharted Stars, A78
