The finely drawn characters capture readers’ attention in this debut.Īutumn and Phineas, nicknamed Finny, were born a week apart their mothers are still best friends. Hopefully, all will be revealed in the Emerald Green finale
Has Gideon manipulated Gwen? What’s with the creepy Florentine Alliance? Is Gwen destined to play a fatal role closing the Circle, when “the secret will be revealed?” Gwen’s obsessive schoolgirl crushing, complicated time switches and the Circle’s undefined secrets may leave readers a bit clueless. With guts and gumption, she cruises into an 18th-century soiree, where she entertains guests with a 20th-century tune. As she ventures into the past, the contemporary Gwen peppers her first-person account with humorous asides. Adding comic relief, a ghostly gargoyle adopts Gwen. Adjusting to her new role, Gwen falls for Gideon, who fluctuates between wooing and ignoring her. All 12 time travelers must be introduced into the chronograph so the Circle can be closed, and the Guardians have assigned Gwen and irresistible Gideon de Villiers the task of locating four missing time travelers. Her life’s now controlled by the Guardians, a secret society monitoring time travel through the chronograph. In Ruby Red (2011), Gwen discovered she inherited a time-travel gene that makes her the final link in the Circle. In this second volume of the Ruby Red Trilogy, 16-year-old Gwen continues her time-traveling adventures as the newest member of the Circle of Twelve.
