In Blackout, award-winning creator Connie Willis delivered to the time-traveling future of 2060, the setting for a number of of her most famous works, and sent three Oxford historians to World Warfare II England: Michael Davies, intent on watching heroism during the Miracle of Dunkirk; Merope Ward, studying children evacuated from London; and Polly Churchill, posing as a shopgirl in the middle of the Blitz. But when the three become unexpectedly caught in 1940, they have difficulties not and then find their way home but to endure as Hitler's bombers attempt to pummel London into submission. Now the problem has grown even more dire. Small discrepancies in the historical record seem to be to indicate that certain or all of them have in some way affected days gone by, changing the results of the battle. The belief that days gone by can be viewed but never improved has always been a core perception of time-travel theory, but out of the blue it appears that the idea is horribly, tragically wrong. Meanwhile, in 2060 Oxford, the historians' supervisor, Mr. Dunworthy, and 17-year-old Colin Templer, who nurses a robust crush on Polly, are involved in a frantic and relatively impossible have difficulties of their own - to find three missing fine needles in the haystack of background. Informed with compassion, humor, and an artistry both uplifting and destructive, All Clear is more than simply the triumphant culmination of the adventure that commenced with Blackout. It's Connie Willis' most humane, heartfelt book yet - a clear-eyed celebration of trust, love, and the quiet, ordinary functions of heroism and sacrifice all too often overlooked by background. BONUS AUDIO: Includes an intro written and read by creator Connie Willis.
