It’s the 24th century and humans, with the help of artificial intelligences (A.I.s) have finally created the perfect post-dystopian society. To make equally perfect citizens for this world, the elders have created History Camps, full sized recreations of cities from Earth’s distant pasts. Here teens live the way their ancestors did, doing the same dirty jobs and experiencing the same degradations. History Camps teach youths not to repeat the mistakes that almost caused the planet to die. But not everything goes to plan.
In this first of a trilogy, we meet three spoiled teens in the year 2347. Hansum almost 17, is good looking and athletic. Shamira, 15, is sassy, independent and an artistic genius. Lincoln, 14, is the smart-aleck. But you don’t have to scratch too far beneath the surface to find his insecurities.
These three “hard cases” refuse the valuable lessons History Camps teach. But when they are kidnapped and taken back in time to 1347 Verona, Italy, they only have two choices; adapt to the harsh medieval ways or die. The dangers are many, their enemies are powerful, and safety is a long way away. It’s hardly the ideal environment to fall in love – but that’s exactly what happens. In an attempt to survive, the trio risks introducing technology from the future. It could save them – or it could change history.

Michelle –
Enjoy turning 25! That’s a beautiful age, and I hope you savor every moment! God, I am so old, when I was born rocks were still soft ;P

I just read your bio and saw that you are a 2L as well. I’m in my 2L year at UF 🙂
I think the whole feeling old thing is a law school thing – I just turned 23 this past Saturday and I feel ancient too, all I do is study and then sleep (and of course I squeeze in some fun reading when I can).
Thanks for having the giveaway! I’m actually really impressed, I wanted to start a book blog myself and I got everything set up during the summer, but this year has been so crazy I had to give up on the idea.
