By Shannon Nemechek
5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Traveler Series, Book of Eleanor Book 3) by Shannon Nemechek. It is a story that is interesting and intriguing. It includes danger, witches, and a curse. I loved the story and the characters. The author does an amazing job of making them both come alive. The book had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. Each story in this series keeps getting better. To fully understand what is going on, you should read them in order. I love reading about the interactions between the characters. Don’t miss out on an amazing, exciting, and entertaining story. I highly recommend reading it and the entire series.
Having loved the other books in this series, I was looking forward to returning to Katie and Colm. These are books you should read in order. I love how the relationship between Katie and Colm is solid and instead the book focuses more on their interactions with other characters. I loved the time travel elements and all the world-building, but also the fast-paced plot that keeps you turning the page. There is plenty of magic and adventure in this story which I really enjoyed.
The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Book of Eleanor 3) by Shannon Nemechek was a good 4 star read.
We start where book 2 left off, Katie and Colm are in 1692 Scotland working on a mission. There is so much that goes on,you will fly through the pages.
Will they fulfill their mission?
We get so much in this read magic, danger, mystery and so much more. We get several twists and turns that will throw you off. The secondary characters added a great element to the story as well. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. I highly suggest reading the first two books in the series before this one. 1-click and get started today.
The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Traveler Series, Book of Eleanor Book 3) by Shannon Nemechek. This series has been amazing. Its not my favorite genre but this author has taken me on a journey where I feel like I have been to Scotland and its so great! I highly recommend reading these books in order. Its the continuing story of Katie and Colm in Scotland at the end of the great Revolution. They are still coming against the same enemies and being asked to try to save someone but is saving that person putting them at risk of changing their futures and if so is it worth it? There is danger, intrigue, magic, amid secrets being revealed. Colm is given a very big choice, will he pick the right one? This book picks right up where the cliff hanger of an ending left us in book 2 so buckle up and enjoy the ride. Its a wild and fast paced adventure!
The Traveler: Chimera Rising (Book Three of the Book of Eleanor series) by Shannon Nemechek was a really good book! This series has become a favorite for me. Not only with the history aspect, but also with the romance, and magic that’s involved throughout. My only complaint I have with this series as a whole is that I wish the books were released sooner, because I always forget what happened in the previous installment, and it confuses when I read the newest novel in the series. But the characters are great, and storylines are always amazing, and this one was no exception. I can’t wait to read the next installment!
This book starts when the previous book, The Revolution finishes. When the Revolution focuses on both Katie and Colm sacrificing their love, this book has them transported back to 6th century where they have a mission to accomplish. But Colm has to make a few choices, and his choices determine the fate of the mission.
As the previous book, this book is also filled with danger, deception, romance and mystery. Katie and Colm have already been through a lot in the previous books, so you do feel connected to those characters and want them to succeed.
Overall, another roller-coaster and an enjoyable read.
5/5 Stars
The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Book of Eleanor 3) by Shannon Nemechek
This is the second book I’ve read by Nemechek. Shannon knows how to bring her readers back. I absolutely love this book and can’t wait for more.
Morgana is dying and there isn’t anything anyone can do. Merlin doesn’t want her to die so something happens. Her kids don’t want to lose her and things go down. The quote I chose for Morgana is: “I’m glad you are here, my son. I want so badly for you and your father to make amends. You children will be all he has once I have passed. Please, my dear son…Please try to forgive your father. He has only thought of what is best for you and your sister. He loves you both so. Please try…”
Merlin is a knight and is serving under the king. After losing his wife things don’t go the way he planned. Going back and forth between time. The quote I chose for Merlin is: “My king, you have been enchanted. You must lock yourself away until I can return. It is imperative that you stay away from everyone. Will you do that, sire?”
Highly recommended for Fantasy lovers.

4 of 5 Stars
Having read and enjoyed the previous two books in this series I was looking forward to reading this latest novel and I was not disappointed. Enjoyable and engaging from start to finish, I was hooked from page one and loved being back with time travellers Katie and Colm. ‘Chimera Rising’ continues Katie and Colm’s story and this time they journey from 1692 to the sixth century having been rescued by Merlin. Here they are involved in a battle between good and evil and they have to prevent magic from falling into the wrong hands. I would recommend that the novels are read in order as they do follow on and the background story of the ancient curse which has been plaguing the Stewart witches for centuries and which only the last Stewart witch, according to prophecy can break also runs through the series. In this third book of ‘The Traveler Series’ the entire prophecy is at last revealed and the Avalon relics must be recovered before The Lady of the Lake can find them. This is a shorter book than the previous two but it is just as action packed and is a real page turner. The descriptive narrative really brings both the characters and the setting to life which made me feel immersed in the story.
This is a complex and fascinating tale. Our hero and heroine wind up in the fantastical world of King Arthur and Guinevere, rubbing shoulders with Lancelot and the other knights of the Round Table. With the wizard Merlin and his wife Morgana by their side, they race headlong into their mission to restore order in 6th Century Wales. This book has intrigue, adventure, and more than a little magic. Shannon Nemechek is skilled at creating beautiful worlds alive with colour and rich in depth. I could feel myself as Katie, magic in my fingertips, as she bravely sought to live her destiny. Fantasy readers will love this latest tale in the Book of Eleanor series, and I recommend the set to anyone who wants to escape into a magical world alive with possibility.
The Traveler: Chimera Rising by Shannon Nemechek a fab four-star read. This is number three in the Book of Eleanor and it is best to read them in order as they do follow on from each other, this one picks up after the end of book two, so you would be lost if you didn’t know what had happened. I love the visuals of Scotland and it made me so desperate to visit once we are finally able to travel. Kate and Colm will suck you into their story and just make you care.

This is an awesome series, I enjoyed this one just as much as the first two. I love time travel stories when they are made to feel like it could really happen and this has given me that. I’m not a big historical fan but after reading the first I had to continue on. I love this author and will always give her books a try.
I don’t recommend reading these out of order, you really need all of them to get the full effect of the ongoing story.
Excellent writing with a unique storyline and it has a super smooth flow allowing me to read it in one sitting.
We are back in Scotland with Katie and Colm following the story of the book but will there be some secrets that should not be revealed.
Katie and Colm are back in Scotland after the great revolution and trying to undertake the task they have been set, but coming back up with familiar enemies and battles can the two of them stay on track especially with the danger, magic and spies.
As they go through the book Colm also has some decisions to make but will he make the right ones, you will have to read and find out.
I have to start with if you have not read the other books, one why not?? but another I feel you would enjoy the story better having the full back story of the other two books. I was gutted when book 2 finished on such a cliff-hanger but glad this book picked right back up with the plot and the story just got better from that first page to the last.
I love these two characters together and they had to really rely on each other with the people and the tasks they had along the way. The book is full of twists and turns and I seriously did not see any of it coming which is always brilliantly in a story as this keeps you engaged until the end. I always loved the secondary characters which just give the book depth but also the amazing scenery within Scotland.
I can’t wait bring on book 4.
Shannon you’ve done it again! Chimera Rising is the third book in The Traveler series, and my personal favorite. I have been impatiently waiting for this book since i finished Chimera Revolution, and Shannon just keeps amazing me! I HIGHLY advise to read these in order, and I highly recommend reading them all! This book, along with the rest of it’s series, is such a beautiful series of ups and downs, and will absolutely hook you from page one. It has quickly become my favorite series, and i just cannot wait to get my hands on more from this author! Shannon knows just how to weave an absolutely spell binding (Pun intended!) work of art!
If you have not checked out Shannon Nemechek and her series The Book of Eleanor, you have been missing an awesome series. This is the third book in the series so i HIGHLY recommend reading the first two before reading this book. In this series there has been time travel, fantasy, magic, danger, mystery, and plenty of paranormal activity to just name a few things. The characters really compliment the plotline well. They are fully developed and complex. I have enjoyed Kate and Colm from the beginning book. They have been through a lot, but are they able to get into just a little more? I found myself turning the pages very quickly because I wanted to see what Kate and Colm is in store next. I did read the book in one sitting. Make sure you are comfortable, have all your snacks, and get ready for a roller coaster ride.
The Traveler: Chimera Rising is the third book in ‘The Book of Eleanor’ Series by Shannon Nemechek. I highly recommend reading the books in order as this one starts off where book 2 left off. As the previous books, this one did not disappoint, I fall in love with the story and characters more each book. The author does such an amazing job adding even the smallest details and keeping you informed during the journeys. I can’t wait for the next book in the series to see where things go!!!
This is is 3rd book in The Book of Eleanor series. I would recommend reading the first 2 books before as this books follow on from the last one. The characters are well written and easy to connect with and the author does an amazing job of painting the scene for the reader.
This is a story about time travelling. Katie and Colm have been asked to save someone but can saving that person change their futures? Can a spoke word change the course of history for the better or worse?
Filled with magic, mystery and adventure this story is one that keeps you wanting more.
I’ve loved this series and was anxious to read this next installment. And then I saw the blurb and saw that it included Merlin and Arthurian time frame and I was giddy. I loved how this story flowed and intertwined a beloved established character with Nemechek’s tome. Very well written and balanced. If you love medieval settings and time travel, you’ll love this book.
I have a special fondness for retellings of the King Arthur myth. The Traveler: Chimera Rising blends elements from the time of Merlin with different eras as Merlin’s granddaughter, Katie, travels through time with her husband, Colm. In this book, Katie and Colm must travel to Merlin’s time in order to thwart the wizard’s evil son, Mordred. My only regret is not reading this series in order. If possible, I would recommend starting with the first book, instead of reading this as a stand alone as I did. If you enjoy magic, time travel and adventure, then you’ll enjoy this book.

The Traveler: Chimera Rising is the third book in ‘The Book of Eleanor’ Series by Shannon Nemechek. It follows on where the previous book left off- so I really recommend reading the first two books, before starting on this one- to ensure you will be able to fully appreciate this story.
This is another enthralling time travel fantasy- with magic, danger, spies, mystery, history, drama, suspense, action, romance, and adventure.
I have enjoyed reading this series, and after the events of the previous book I was looking forward to continuing the adventure with this new release. I am happy to say that this is just as bit as good as the first two books, and is now my firm favourite of the three.
Katie and Colm were in for quite an adventure here. Secrets are revealed- while Colm’s loyalties are tested- which side IS he on. With danger at every turn and the fate of the book at stake, they are thrust into the fray, danger nipping at their heels- a true test their mettle, like never before.
As with the previous books- this is another fast-paced, action-packed adventure that’s full of intrigue, excitement, suspense, and dramatic developments.
I was also excited to see that there are quite a few more instalments planned for this series. Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Nemechek has in store for us.
Bring on Book #4!
Thank you, Shannon Nemechek!!
The Traveler: Chimera Rising by Shannon Nemechek is the third book in the Book of Eleanor series. For me this is definitely a series that needs to be read in order so you can fully understand what is happening. This book picks up right from where the previous book ends meaning we are straight back into the story. It is a pretty fast paced book with plenty going on so it will be sure to keep you interested. Having read the previous books it really feels like you know the characters by this point. It feels like you are on the journey with them. The author has put in such detail that you can imagine it all so easily.
This book has got to be my favourite out of the series so far and is a great addition. I am looking forward to seeing what else might be next.
