THE TIME WEAVER: A NOVEL

Book ID/图书代码： 06830010B38987

English Summary/英文概要： From the highly acclaimed author of The Treasure Keeper and Queen of Dragons comes this mesmerizing new novel of the drákon, a supersensual race of shapeshifters whose world exists side by side with our own. In The Time Weaver, a young drákon woman discovers she possesses a unique gift, one that brings her closer to her destined love—at the cost of their very lives.

Honor Carlisle may have been born into the drákon clan but she’s always felt like a stranger to her kin. It’s an intuition that proves true when she receives a mysterious letter—a letter sent by her future self. Honor learns she is a Time Weaver: a creature with the extraordinary ability to transport herself into the past or future.

But the letter contains a dire warning. If Honor remains in her home at Darkfrith, she is certain to be killed. Fleeing for sanctuary among old friends in Spain, she practices her Weaving and unknowingly draws closer to an even more immediate danger. For on one of her Weaves into the future, Honor encounters the very man she should most avoid: the prince of a rival tribe of drákon.

Drawn to Prince Alexandru of Zaharen, Honor is unable to resist the temptation of Weaving to him again and again across time. As they surrender to a desire that brings the present and future ever closer, they realize they are true soulmates. But they also risk fulfilling a terrible prophecy—for their union is destined to wreak havoc. Now Honor and Sandu must place their trust—and their lives—in each other’s hands, and their faith in a magical love that could restore order to the drákon universe—or destroy it forever.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 來自備受矚目的《The Treasure Keeper》和《Queen of Dragons 》的作者所呈現的一部最新的，具有迷幻色彩的德古拉小說，書中描述了一個和我們並存的超級性感的變形物種世界。在《時間穿行者》一書中，一位年輕的德庫拉女人發現了她所擁有的獨特天賦，這種天賦可以使她以自己生命為代價，接近她生命中的摯愛。
Honor Carlisle可能有着德庫拉家族的血統，但在親戚面前，她總是覺得自己像是個局外人。當她收到一封來自未來的自己寄來的一封信時，驗證了自己多年來的直覺。Honor得知自己是一個時間穿行者：她其實是一種可以讓自己穿越過去和未來的具有超凡能力的生物。
但這封信裏還隨附有一個可怕的警告。如果Honor仍然呆在自己Darkfrith的家裡，她將會被謀殺。為了躲避災難，在西班牙老友的幫助下，她逃離了保護區，她開始練習自己的時間穿行技巧，自己卻不知道危險正直接向她走來。在她穿越至未來時，Honor遇見了一個她最應該躲避的男人：德庫拉敵對部落的一位王子。
她迷戀上了Zaharen部落的王子Alexandru，Honor無法抵禦自己穿越時光去一次次地與他會面的誘惑。當他們屈從於自己的慾望而導致現在與將來的時空越來越接近時，他們意識到自己原來是對方真正的靈魂伴侶。但是他們的多次穿越時空會面也可能兌現一個可怕的預言 — 因為他們的結合註定會造成嚴重的後果。現在Honor和Sandu必須把他們相互間的信任 — 他們的生活 — 相互的誓約，和他們對這份神奇愛情的信仰抑制或永遠地將這些摧毀，以恢復德庫拉世界的正常秩序。(Sandy)

Abé’s fifth Drákon fantasy romance (after 2009’s The Treasure Keeper) introduces Honor Carlisle, whose time-traveling powers help her fit into a dragon society hidden in the midst of 18th-century England. In an original and ambitious spin on time travel stories, Honor is at once the heroine and, from a future time line, the nemesis who drives the plot. The slow revelation of why and how such a sympathetic character could turn against her values adds dramatic tension, and the drákon’s well-meant efforts to avert tragedy lead them to horrific expedients, making a welcome change from stock villains. Despite occasional purple prose and an unsatisfying ending precipitated by a third party who forces resolution on the conflicted protagonists, this story delivers a real sense of wonder.

About the Author/作者介绍： 莎納•亞伯生於德克薩斯州。在科羅拉多州渡過了自己的童年時光，曾作為一個外國交換生，在墨西哥有過短暫的逗留，十七歲時，在日本從事模特生涯。幼年時期，亞伯就開始著手寫作，在當拍攝模的空閒時間裏，完成了被她稱之為“有史以來最愚蠢的浪漫小說”的創作。她的寫作風格主要側重於浪漫題材，而這些也是她最為喜歡閱讀的小說。她隨後在洛杉磯上了大學，拿到了戲劇學位。
她的第二部小說，同樣也是當代浪漫類型，並在一個寫作比賽中位列第三名。於是她把自己的作品寄給了幾家可能具有市場前瞻性的代理社，這些代理商多數回覆她的問題大多為“看上去不錯 — 不過你的作品的主線是什麼呢？”在這些建議下，亞伯不得對原先的寫作套路進行修改，她最終覺得集中精力於歷史浪漫愛情題材。為了嘗試此類題材，新婚不久的亞伯選擇把自己醞釀的浪漫中世紀愛情故事告訴丈夫。這份名為《 A Rose in Winter》手稿被Bantam出版社購買出版。
亞伯的許多小說背景都設置於中世紀時期。她之所以選擇這一時期是因為那是一段“光明與黑暗的分水嶺時期…中世紀時期的皇家的宏偉，威嚴和騎士精神都給她的創作帶來了無窮的創作靈感 — 但也不得不承認，那也是人類歷史上最為黑暗的一段時期。”
亞伯獲得了《浪漫時代雜誌》的職業成就獎，她還六次被提名為《浪漫時代雜誌》評審獎，兩次獲勝。
