"A strong literary fantasy novel about race, family, and time-traveling." -- IndependentBookReview.com
SYNOPSIS: I know what’s going to happen. It is 1859, and I should be celebrating my wedding, which is only hours away, a wedding meant to end a centuries-old conflict. But I am haunted by visions: I can see the slavers coming. I can see Van Owen on the deck of his ship. I can see him stealing my power. I can see the ravages of war and the decades of running and hiding as he hunts my family for generations — from the shores of West Africa to the plantations of North Carolina to the spires of 21st Century New York City. But I also see a Harlem family there — a 13 year-old boy who doesn’t know how to fight, his younger sister who refuses to speak, his older brother who thinks he can protect them — and Van Owen somehow there, too, somehow still alive and watching them all. What does he want, and how can I stop him if no one believes me?
Praise for CHAINS OF TIME..
"A perceptive and gripping tale of race and family."
-- Kirkus Reviews
"★★★★★ The beauty of Woodstone's prose evokes the intensity and allegorical journey that is usually reserved for literary fiction. The writing is simultaneously gorgeous, terrifying, and hopeful."
-- Readers' Favorite
"R.B. Woodstone has crafted a thoughtful, time-spanning novel that touches on family, oppression, and otherness in Chains of Time... the dramatic blend of history, tragedy, and magic pulls a reader in from the very start."
-- Self-Publishing Review
"An exceptional story that will place you in the heart and mind of each of the amazing characters. Prepare to be moved by a unique story that delves deep into the historical abuse of a people but has dynamic pockets of excitement, heartbreak, and the paranormal. Highly recommended."
-- Lesley Jones, international best-selling author
"With captivating characters on a fulfilling magical journey, Chains of Time is a strong novel that does not disappoint."
-- IndependentBookReview.com
"Though the work is rooted in fantasy and magical realism, there's a highly realistic quality to the historical content and the experience of Africans in the tragedy of the slave trade. Young adult and adult readers alike can appreciate the sophistication of ideas, which are layered into a powerful storyline that blends present and past exceedingly well."
-- K.C. Finn, USA Today best-selling author and Chanticleer Book Award winner
