Somebody mentioned Poul Anderson's Time Patrol series, which made me look for some of his other books. He also wrote There Will Be Time, which concerns a mutant-like time traveler. I'm halfway through the novel and my opinion is... mixed. Overall it's a decent book, but at some point the perspective goes... weird. The story starts (and continues for a while) in first person, focusing on that person's experiences with the time traveler. And then, suddenly, the story's told in third person from the point of view of the time traveler with occasional remarks of the aforementioned first person.
Very confusing to read, hence the mixed opinion.
@lila55: You're welcome.
