"With the whimsy of Alice in Wonderland and the romance of Outlander dive back into the next installment in the Librarian Chronicles."
Savannah Preston has a rare and precious gift: The ability to time travel through books. She, and others who share this unique ability, are faced with the insurmountable task of preserving history. They are known collectively as The Librarians.
While researching infamous Scottish outlaw Sir Malcolm Wash during the raging conflicts of the 14th Century, Savannah loses the only thing that tethers her to her own time. She must rely on her knowledge of both the present and the past to survive long enough to find a way home. Along the way, she enlists the help of a misfit named Eoin. With his guidance, she might just get home. It’s a risky and dangerous adventure, but then, so is Eoin…
Now on to the excerpt!
The most important research was kept inside the blank pages of a book.
Each mission yielded a new book. Once that book was full and our mission
complete, it was sealed. I’m a Librarian, but not in the typical sense. I
haven’t earned the proper diploma to get such a title. I, along with many
others throughout the world, preserve the history of some of the most famous
historical figures inside the blank pages of each book we are sent. The
Librarians was founded by a famous scientist, Harold Lockhart. Lockhart wrote
the formula for time travel in the only thing he had near him when it was fresh
in his brain. That book wasn’t empty, it happened to be the history of none
other than, Abraham Lincoln. After he wrote the formula, he was whisked away in
time and came face to face with Lincoln himself. The talent to travel and
record history was never his intention, but after he realized how wrong
historians were about the president, he created the group of Librarians.
Lockhart put us in charge of libraries and their books. The sect of Librarians
were given their jobs and they went to work straight away.
I myself hope to achieve the
goal of working in a library with the official title someday, which is what I’m
studying in school. My intention is to host my own library and help archive
important time periods through my research as well as artifacts, like my
grandma did. Like all the women did who came before her.
All I know about my job before I
travel is who I’m to research. Everything else is learned while I’m inside the
book, or in other words, the past.
I’m forbidden to change history by becoming involved in the past or
with my target.
But I can become friendly with them and immerse myself in their
world. It’s hard not to become part of it. While I’m there I am more than just
a girl recording the true history.
About Christy:
I am Southern California native, now living in New Jersey! How
did that happen? I am married and have two beautiful little
girls who love to read just like Mommy. I have had a passion for books since I
was a little girl and an imagination for just as long. I hope my books can
inspire others to read and to write too.
