I didn’t finish the series. It was more for teens and also more for present times. I thought it would be more about the 1800’s.

This is an almost unbelievable story but this writer has mastered his Prose. He makes you believe that time travel is not only possible it actually happened. He's A new favorite Author for me and I will read everything he writes.
