Time Squared - A Novel

Lesley Krueger

Summary

A richly atmospheric portrait of women’s agency and the timelessness of love, Time Squared explores the enduring roles of rights, responsibility, and devotion throughout history
		 
The game will change when you remember who you are
		 
Robin and Eleanor meet in 1811 at the British estate of Eleanor’s rich aunt Clara. Robin is about to leave to fight in the Napoleonic Wars, and her aunt rules out a marriage between them. Everyone Eleanor knows, including Robin, believe they’ve always lived in these times.
		 
But Eleanor has strange glimpses of other eras, dreams that aren’t dreams but memories of other lives. And their time jumps start as their romance deepens. Robin fights in the Boer War, the First and Second World Wars, in Vietnam and Iraq. Meanwhile, Eleanor struggles to figure out what’s going on, finally understanding that she and Robin are being manipulated through time.
		 
Who is doing this, and why? Arriving in modern times, Eleanor sets off to confront the ones she discovers are behind this — chessmasters playing her like a pawn. Eleanor’s goal? To free herself to live out her life on her own terms.
		 
Time Squared examines the roles women are forced to play in different centuries, the power they’re allowed, the stresses they face — and what this does to their relationships.

Legends Of Yore

Rachel Lawson

This captivating collection fuses stories and poems, taking us on an immersive journey through time, intertwining past and present.The Enchanter and Chimera (poem) 
In knightly days of yore did the Enchanter create a chimera creature, 
A hybrid of lion and bird to hunt a giant Roc bird, 
A giant bird of prey of the lands of Arabia years of old, 
He admired the Roc as it gracefully flew through the clouds from the back of his Chimera 
He wore a suit of shining armour, feathers flew from his steed's giant wings, 
He drew his enchanted sword and the flying lion flew in for the kill, 
He stabbed the snapping giant bird and it fell from the sky, 
Landing in a great thud.
