Family Time cover

A family vacation turns into a time-travel adventure in Family Time, where they must battle a tyrant and discover hidden powers.

In Family Time, the O'Connell family embarks on an unforgettable vacation to Ireland, where their adventure takes an unexpected turn. While exploring the enchanting landscape, they encounter an old man who possesses a mysterious crystal. This crystal has the power to transport them back in time, landing them in a tumultuous period a thousand years ago. As they grapple with their new reality, the family is left wondering if they have stumbled upon a historical re-enactment or if they are truly trapped in the past.

To navigate this unfamiliar world, the O'Connell family must forge an alliance with Rory, a timid local who becomes their guide and friend. Together, they face the challenges posed by Ciaran, a ruthless medieval tyrant, and his band of henchmen. As they work to find a way back home, Lily discovers that she has developed extraordinary powers that may be the key to their escape. The journey is filled with challenges, bravery, and the bonds of family that are tested in the face of danger.

Written by Robert Windom and his daughter Lily, Family Time is a delightful blend of fantasy and adventure. With captivating illustrations by Eisner Award-winning artists Jae Lee and Sanford Greene, alongside the fresh talent of Asiah Fulmore, this book promises to engage readers of all ages with its rich storytelling and vibrant artwork.
