Set initially during the first century AD, Time After Time transports readers to the ancient kingdom of Dacia, located in what is now modern-day Romania. The Dacians, known for their fierce independence and formidable warfare tactics, are depicted at a time when their civilization is at the zenith of its power yet facing the imminent threat of Roman conquest. The narrative provides a detailed portrayal of Dacian culture, from their religious beliefs and social structures to their military strategies and diplomatic relations with Rome.
Susan M. Borris meticulously reconstructs the political and social environment of Dacia, drawing on extensive historical research to ensure accuracy in every aspect of Dacian life portrayed in the novel. Through the character of Micah, a young Dacian warrior, readers gain insight into the internal and external conflicts that shaped Dacia during this tumultuous period.
Parallel to the ancient setting, the novel features a contemporary storyline in New Orleans, where Desiree Etienne, a history student, uncovers her ancestral roots leading back to Dacia. This dual narrative structure not only bridges two eras but also enhances the thematic depth of the novel, reflecting on how the past continuously influences the present.
Time After Time delves into themes such as identity, legacy, and cultural continuity, illuminated through the lens of historical fiction. The novel encourages readers to reflect on the preservation of history and its relevance to modern identity and cultural heritage.
Susan M. Borris's dedication to historical fidelity and her ability to turn factual details into engaging, personal narratives make Time After Time an enriching read for those fascinated by history and its impact on contemporary life. The book is particularly suited for readers who appreciate a narrative that combines rigorous historical details with rich, character-driven storytelling.
