In Assassin’s Time Out of Time, the sixth sequel to The Book in the Loft series, time travel once again becomes reality for Neil MacBruce and the crew of the starship Explorer, and they experience firsthand what no one understands. An action that took place in the future is about to be undone by an action taking place in the past of that future, which could very well cause the present as well as the future to cease to exist or branch off into different and possible undesirable timelines. How that is possible is something those in the present can only visualize, but it is decided that the events that occurred in the past of their future must not be tampered with. Just as tampering with events in the past of the present can alter the history of the present, tampering with events in the past of the future can alter the history of the future. And that, it is decided, has to be avoided at all costs. But there are those who either do not realize the end results of what they are about to do or they simply do not care, and the assassin is about to strike.

The Nations of the Young Kingdoms had not felt the anguish of war for nearly twenty years. Now, with a massive barbarian army poised to invade Aljamin, just one walled city, Akaar, guards the large Kingdoms borders. The city lies exposed and vulnerable to invasion. Defenseless. With their land in chaos, Sinjin Storm and his trusted companions set out to rally allies to help defend their country. Taken under the wing of Sorrell Tovaal, a powerful wizard, Storm begins to have visions and is beset with questions.

With unwavering courage, Storm encounters assassins, beasts, and dark figures from the Dead Wood forest that seem bent on his destruction. As the invasion intensifies, Storm and his allies realize the barbarian hordes are merely pawns in a war between two powerful, yet parallel worlds. The Young Kingdoms quickly realize that dark forces are working furiously in this other world, poised and waiting for the chance to bring an age of darkness and chaos to the human world.

“Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge.” These words are spoken by Iris Chase Griffen, married at eighteen to a wealthy industrialist but now poor and eighty-two. Iris recalls her far from exemplary life, and the events leading up to her sister’s death, gradually revealing the carefully guarded Chase family secrets. Among these is “The Blind Assassin,” a novel that earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, it was a pulp fantasy improvised by two unnamed lovers who meet secretly in rented rooms and seedy cafés. As this novel-within-a-novel twists and turns through love and jealousy, self-sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real narrative, as both move closer to war and catastrophe. Margaret Atwood’s Booker Prize-winning sensation combines elements of gothic drama, romantic suspense, and science fiction fantasy in a spellbinding tale.
