Today I'm very happy to introduce the amazing Shay Fabbro, multi-published author of the Portals of Destiny, a sci-fi series, and of the young adult series, The Adventures of Alexis Davenport. Here she's going to tell us about Alexis' newest adventure, Twisted Reflections. Okay, Shay, it's your turn...;)
I have always been fascinated with the idea of time
travel. It would be so amazing to travel back in time and observe how people
really lived. It’s one thing to use archaeological evidence to hypothesize
about how people lived in the past, but to actually be able to observe them
going about their daily lives, or to see what their homes looked like and what
they ate would be so incredible.
Ah, to see Rome and watch the gladiators perform
in the Coliseum, or walk through the streets of an ancient Egyptian city, or
watch as druids built Stonehenge. How many mysteries would be solved if only we
could travel back in time? Kind of makes me wish that Dr. Who would arrive with
his TARDIS and whisk me off to see something no other modern human has ever
seen.
Of course, there is always the danger of screwing
up the time line. It could spell disaster if an innocent act by a time traveler
inadvertently altered the course of history. The repercussions could be
disastrous. This is what makes me thankful that no one has managed to invent a
time travel device.
In my Adventures of Alexis Davenport series,
fifteen-year-old Alex has the unsavory task of protecting the time line from
someone trying to alter the past. Not only that, she also has to deal with all
of the other things a teenager has to deal with. This poor girl has a lot on
her plate! But she’s spunky with a side of sass thrown in for good measure and
can handle anything that comes her way.
Thanks so much, Shay! I hope you guys all check out her book ... You can find Twisted Reflections on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords.
Peace,
Liv
