Dooms Day Book (Connie Willis)
Okay,As I enjoyed this so much, and before I send this out to a stranger on Bookcrossing I was wondering if anyone would like to read this?
All I ask is that you register with bookcrossing, transfer the book over to you once you have it, and send it on to another person once you've read it.
If theres enough interest we could just keep passing it round the forum!!
For Kivrin, preparing for on-site study of one of the deadliest eras in humanity's history was as simple as receiving inoculations against the diseases of the fourteenth century and inventing an alibi for a woman traveling alone. For her instructors in the twenty first century, it meant painstaking calculations and careful monitering of the rendezvous location where kivrin would be retrieved.
But a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In a time of superstition and fear, Kivrin-barely of age herself-finds she has become an unlikely angel of hope during one of historys darkest hours.
