Description
Unlocking a love that lasts for lifetimes and beyond.
When Dr Viv DuLac, a medievalist and academic, slips into 499 AD and into the body of Lady Vivianne, little does she realise that their lives across the centuries will become intertwined as they fight for their dreams…and their lives.
How can the key that Viv brings back with her to the present, unlock the love they both crave? And can they help each other across the centuries without changing the course of history?
A Shape on the Air is a novel that asks: is there still ‘magic’ in the world? Perfect for fans of Pamela Hartshorne, Barbara Erskine and Susanna Kearsley.
‘In the best Barbara Erskine tradition …I would highly recommend this novel’ - Historical Novel Society
‘Amazing…a really great book…I just couldn’t put it down’ - Hazel Morgan
Acclaimed, award-winning author Julia Ibbotson is fascinated by the medieval world and concepts of time travel. She read English at Keele University, England (after a turbulent but exciting gap year in Ghana, West Africa) specialising in medieval language, literature and history, and has a PhD in socio-linguistics. She wrote her first novel at 10 years of age, but became a school teacher, then an academic as a senior university lecturer and researcher.
She has published a number of books, including memoir, children’s medieval fantasy, a trilogy set in Ghana, and medieval time-slip, as well as academic works. Apart from insatiable reading, she loves travelling the world, singing in choirs, swimming, yoga and walking in the countryside in England and Madeira where she and her husband divide their time.
