Trial by Time
by Thérèse Judeana
An impenetrable shadow has bound the galaxy of Andromeda for centuries. After a freak accident of space, an empire of slave traders learns to control time. Now nothing can stop them from taking whom they will. In the deadly currents of a universe torn by the Marauders, can Marc, one of the galaxies’ guardians, protect those he loves? Will his daughter survive her traumatic past? Can anyone bring light to the Marauders and break Andromeda’s chains?
In this second book of the trilogy, entitled Trial by Time, Samantha, captured by Medrhos, is plunged a thousand years into the past, faced with the prospect of becoming a Marauder herself: with or without her free will. Meanwhile, Marc must play his part in Talitha’s fate. As they face their worst nightmares, a shadow creeps across the horizon: one which even Medrhos can’t hold back.

TESTIMONIALS
“Beautifully and almost poetically descriptive, Trial by Time is a perfect, smooth continuation of Cross of Secrets. Therese Judeana’s lifelike characters exhibit strong faith in God’s will for their lives throughout their trials, showing readers that when it seems all is lost, we can find hope in God as we surrender ourselves to Him and His plan for us, just like Marc, Samantha and Aiyra did. As the characters fight against the immoralities of slavery, more secrets are revealed and the fight for good to triumph over evil continues. Mingling life’s sorrows with its joys, Therese Judeana has been blessed with the ability to convey these emotions to her readers through her incredible writing. She writes of holy romances that strive to put God at the center, and she describes the settings of the story so clearly that the reader can picture these worlds as if they were seeing Mal’lon or Almedra with their own eyes. I look forward to reading Shards of Crystal, and I don’t want this remarkable series to end.” – E.G. Enga, author of The Children of the Chapel and the First Christmas
