She’s back! Jenny can’t believe she’s going back to the year 1347. Again. But she has to rescue her friends in the village before the Black Death devastates England. At least now she knows what she’s getting into when she travels through the secret time portal at Stonehenge. Sort of. Jenny is about to find out that she’s got a lot more in store than just saving her village from the plague. Luckily, her mentor Gwenelda figures out what Jenny’s up to and arrives to help the headstrong apprentice. What they don’t know is that the wicked wizard Rudigor has set a terrible chain of events in motion that could wreak havoc around the world. But this time the threat is not only in the past—it’s in the present too, and Rudigor’s evil has spread far beyond the Middle Ages.

Something is terribly wrong! An evil sorcerer has figured out how to time travel and Jenny has to go back to the year 1347 to stop him. A dark wizard who could be far more dangerous than the sorcerer Rudigor. A wizard who is using the power of Jenny’s beloved mentor Gwenelda in his evil schemes. Has Gwenelda turned to dark magic? Is she helping this wizard topple the entire Gatekeeper Fraternity? Jenny will stop at nothing to find out the truth, no matter how dangerous it gets. Even if it means risking her very life.

Richard Blackmore (1825-1900) was a minor historical novelist whose works have been somewhat overlooked by the reading masses, but whose talent for characterization and setting rank his words among the finest of nineteenth-century English literature. "Lorna Doone," Blackmore's acknowledged masterpiece, attained belated popularity a little more than a year after its publication. Rumors began that the novel was about the recent marriage of the marquis of Lorna into the family of Queen Victoria, leading to a sudden influx of sales and praise from both critics and the reading public. Although the rumors were unfounded, the novel became a classic of Victorian fiction. The romantic story, complete with courageous heroes, secret agents, highwaymen, and dangerous villains, is set in the wild and forbidding countryside of Exmoor. Readers will take pleasure in the lush descriptions of Exmoor's natural beauty, the gripping battles of strength and will, and the wonderfully romantic love story that Blackmore has created.
