Downtown

Starring: Anne Boleyn (Lady Dreamscapes, Book 3)

De: A.C. Merkel

Narrado por: Jaimee Moore

Nothing lasts forever. Even for a queen.

White picket fence? Not for me. I need to be amongst them.

The lights. The crowd. My place is here. Where I can feel eight million hearts pounding. The alternative is to be alone with my thoughts. My name is Anne, and everyone I have ever known is dead.

This Lady Dreamscapes novella leans into the literary fiction and magical realism strands of the series’ DNA. A mother and daughter, no longer separated by 486 years, struggle to connect in the modern world.

Road trips. Ghosts. And a centuries-old, forgotten power paves the way.

Continuity note: This story takes place during the last chapter of London Calling. So please listen to that first. Or not. But I did warn you.

Delightfully beautiful series

Novellas as part of a series rarely pack so much story into them. I loved the pacing almost as much as the character development. The rich contrast of dropping 1500’s Anne Boleyn into the 2020’s made my imagination spin out. Any lover of Historical Fiction and/or Time Travel fantasy has often pondered the many rules and mysteries. The lack of simplistic tropes was refreshing. Above all, I truly appreciate the intelligence and authenticity given to such beautiful strong women characters that I’ve come to love. Many authors wrangle over their opening lines but this novella gut punched me with the final sentences! Thank you for such an amazing series. The Narrator is excellent and adds so much dimension to the characters and story.
