Description
under pressure from unspecified intelligence agents, Danny's desperate leap lands him in an icy world. Danny may have saved the world, but the effects have changed Danny's world.
His rescue by his Iron Age cousin is not enough to save him from suspicion and guilt. Will he ever see the woman he loves or his modern family again. While he still has his place in the settlement of Seahome, Ken Raynes is a constant reminder of what they have all lost. Memories of his father haunt him, and he remembers the message his father had sent to the modern world, with its hidden meanings. Acting against his better judgement Danny decides to make one more attempt at a desperate leap through time.
But danger lies there too, when he finds himself in a world strangely different from the ones he has known. His immediate joy in finding his father is tainted by loss, but when plunged into the vibrant but dangerous world he has landed in, Danny finds he has the necessary skills to deal with a very different form of tribal warfare.

Reviews / Votes
A great story with characters you can connect with. -Amazon readers; An Intriguing setting and plot line that juxtaposes characters and cultures from the distant past and Present Day. A very readable story line that is developing with complexity through the series. - A.S.; Bristles with intrigue and danger... holding the reader in excited suspense as Danny navigates his way through physical and emotional battles in parallel worlds. -E.M'A time-slip novel that questions what we seek in life, and whether we can ever reach fulfilment, is more than just a gripping adventure. 'Time Untethered' sparkles with historic detail; the differences and similarities of past and present, and the mistakes humanity makes, time and again through the years.'

Person
Yen Rickeard's first degree is in Aeronautics and Astronautics, the second degree is in education, the third degree is what life gives us all. She has lived for more than a year on each of 5 continents, jumped out of an aeroplane, swum at 30 metres below the surface of an ocean, and brought up 3 children.
Yen loves wild places, and is astounded and delighted by ancient history written into the landscape. Archaeology reveals the parallels and differences between the late Iron Age and modern times. Research into the Parisi of East Yorkshire was intensive, exciting and rewarding, even if the Iron Age did fight back at times. Yen crystallises this into the gripping Danny Sharp series, 'Time and Again', set in modern times and the late Iron Age.
