War Of The Wing Men
The Man Who Counts
Earth Book Of Stormgate, 2
Its cover shows bat-winged Diomedeans, not feathered Ythrians.
The contents of The Earth Book Of Stormgate have been published in three formats:
as a single volume;
in three volumes;
collected with other installments of the Technic History in Volumes I-III of the seven-volume The Technic Civilization Saga.
Ythrians feature in:
The People Of The Wind
five of the twelve works in the Earth Book
the interstitial passages of the Earth Book
The Day Of Their Return
"Lodestar" divides into:
a trader team story;
a Nicholas van Rijn and Ythrians story, from his granddaughter's point of view;
the decisive confrontation between van Rijn and his trader team, when an Ythrian spaceship captain sees the shadow of God the Hunter across van Rijn's way of life.
Ythrians look forward neither not to a bright future but to a shadow across the future.

Kaor, Paul!
Actually, all of the short stories in THE EARTH BOOK OF STORMGATE were first originally published in magazines like ANALOG, BOYS' LIFE, and others I would need to check the publication credits for (but I think one story was first pub. in a collection). And was WAR OF THE WING MEN (gagging at the awful title!) first serialized in a SF magazine?
