Maybe future-Harry arranges for them to be summoned so he and Eb don't throw down yet. Hence time travel? That's the problem with time travel being introduced into stories. Is Harry going to run himself off the road in that earlier book?
KurtinStGeorge:
The one thing I don't want is to find out that the cornerhounds came after Harry because he will time travel in the future. Leave the timey-whimey BS to Dr. Who. If they were targeting Ebenezer at least there might be a good excuse. He might have recently used the Blackstaff to time travel and whoever summoned the cornerhounds was aware of Eb's activities and knew the cornerhounds would home in on the old wizard because presumably there's a way for those creatures to sense some residual signal (or call it a magical scent) that identifies a recent time traveler.

That conversation escalated quickly, though. Less than a minute in real time, probably. How long does it take to whistle up Outsiders? Harry was about to open up his Sight when Eb snuck up on him.

Almost definitely. PG is rife with time travel confusion.
The_Sibelis:
Binder definitely summons more than 13 henchmen and they share a hivemind similar to the corner hounds... Interesting they hunt time travelers though.. veeeery interesting...
Grifter:
Yes, the time travel bit is certainly interesting...
