Time-travel meets slavery in a poignant tale.

"Kindred" isn't just a book; it's a time machine that takes the raw nerve of America's dark history and weaves it with a story of survival, identity, and the unbreakable ties that connect us. This is more than a novel - it's an experience that collapses the boundaries of time and gives a voice to a past that echoes into the present. It would grip anyone looking to delve into the complexities of history through the lens of science fiction.

Description

In 1976, Dana dreams of being a writer. In 1815, she is assumed a slave. When Dana first meets Rufus on a Maryland plantation, he's drowning. She saves his life - and it will happen again and again. Neither of them understands his power to summon her whenever his life is threatened, nor the significance of the ties that bind them. And each time Dana saves him, the more aware she is that her own life might be over before it's even begun.
