Opis

When Amy discovers a trunk in her grandfather's attic, she magically travels through it, discovering strange new worlds and embarking on a series of fantastic adventures spanning both time and space. On her journey, Amy encounters dragons, ghosts, and dream-catching fairies who ask her to find the secret of the universe. As she continues her harrowing adventure, Amy is confronted by several opposing forces - the Tempter, Controller, Time-keeper, and the enigmatic being Mearon, each of whom, in their own particular fashion, seeks domination of the universe. After a terrible battle between two powerful armies of gold and silver chess pieces, each of which possesses certain human attributes, one of the silver knights creates a vast hypercube that acts as a time machine. Realizing that she can restart the flow of time only by solving certain puzzles, Amy is forced to overcome her fears and use every bit of her artfulness and wit. By doing so, she gains insight into herself, as well as some very special powers... Pauline Verhoeff-van Wees grew up in Leiden, The Netherlands, and now resides in the Algarve, Portugal. She is currently working on a sequel to The Q-ube, and a humorous dating guide for women. Publisher's Web site: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TheQ-ube.htm
