Description
Napjaink Párizsában Marcus halandó szerelme, Phoebe Taylor szintén az örökkévalóság ösvényére készül lépni. Bár az átalakulás modernizált változata egyszerűnek tűnik, a szerelmespárnak rá kell döbbennie, hogy a vámpírlétre vágyó halandónak egyáltalán nincs könnyebb dolga, mint annak idején, a 18. században. A múlt eltemetettnek hitt árnyai könnyen visszatérhetnek – és az idők végezetéig kísérthetik mindkettejüket.
A történelmi hűséget és a természetfelettit utánozhatatlan módon vegyítő Deborah Harkness új regénye kötelező olvasmány a Mindenszentek-trilógia hívei számára, és tökéletes bevezetőt kínál a szerző univerzumába.

ever since i read A Discover of Witches i wanted a story all about Marcus and Phoebe. i love the time jumping between Marcus past, when he first became a vampire, his meeting with Philippe, actually seeing more of Philippe, and seeing how to transformation process works. also loved Miriam becoming protecting of Phoebe.
Another masterpiece of writing from Deborah Harkness that pulls you back into the world first experienced in the wonderful All Souls Trilogy.You learn so much about the life of Marcus in Time's Convert both in the present day and the past and I loved every minute of it. He was intriguing in the first three books and I, like so many others I imagine, had wanted what made Marcus become the man he is - and Time's Convert succeeded in so many ways.The transition from warm-blooded to vampire for Phoebe is fascinating and somewhat gruesome at times (and why would it not be) and I liked the comparison to that of a baby being born and developing their knowledge and understanding of basic needs. It's a new and original idea and one that makes sense.. Although Phoebe 's childlike petulance irritated me, that too made sense and I loved how I as the reader experienced a multitude of emotions reading their stories alongside that of the new parents in Matthew and Diana.A wonderful read that has me hungry for more.
