An Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award winner—Grand Prize and Young Adult Fiction.
When Kate Pierce-Keller’s grandmother gives her a strange blue medallion and speaks of time travel, sixteen-year-old Kate assumes the old woman is delusional. But it all becomes horrifyingly real when a murder in the past destroys the foundation of Kate’s present-day life. Suddenly, that medallion is the only thing … the only thing protecting Kate from blinking out of existence.
Kate learns that the 1893 killing is part of something much more sinister, and her genetic ability to time travel makes Kate the only one who can fix the future. Risking everything, she travels back in time to the Chicago World’s Fair to try to prevent the murder and the chain of events that follows.
Changing the timeline comes with a personal cost—if Kate succeeds, the boy she loves will have no memory of her existence. And regardless of her motives, does Kate have the right to manipulate the fate of the entire world?
Publisher’s Note: Timebound was originally released as Time’s Twisted Arrow.

I just finished the audio book, Timebound and it was fantastic! From the title, you can imagine it is a time travel novel, and there is a lot going on, but it wasn’t hard hard to follow and I enjoyed it immensely! It doesn’t end on a cliffhanger, but I can’t wait to see what happens next. Do yourself a favor and read the book!
This series of a time traveling teen will appeal to the younger set, that is your teens, as she works with her Grandmother to “set thing straight”. You see, her Grandfather and njoyerandmother are really from the future, and her Grandfather is a master manipulator of events in past time. He has changed history in a drastic way, starting a new …
This was one of the best stories I’ve read in a long time! Super creative, with fantasy, history, romance, and great characterization.
The story follows Kate, whose mother and grandmother Catherine don’t get along. Catherine is dying, and seeks Kate to build a relationship before she passes, requesting that Kate come to live with her part of the …
I enjoy all of Rysa Walker books
I absolutely love an action-packed time travel and Timebound did not disappoint. It might have started out a tad slow, but Walker needed to build her world of different time slips as well as get the heroine, Kate, trained in all the technicalities of time travel. The second half of the book really kicked up the pace, where Kate faced one perilous …
I usually stay away from time travel books because of my poor short term memory. Time travel stories often rely on the reader picking up on details and discrepancies, which I have a hard time with, and then I get lost and confused. I also struggle with times and dates! Man, I was a horrible history student! Even though I love history. Anyway, …
This was a wonderful series, and I read the filler books too, which, I think is a MUST for all readers!
Enjoyed this whole series
I read a lot of time travel fiction and picked this one because it was one I’d never read. It was well written though leaning a little more toward a YA and time travel romance category. I enjoyed it anyway but was disappointed to find that while you can enjoy the book as a stand alone novel it’s only the first in a series and I just seldom like to …
I read Hunger Games and Divergent series, but they left me feeling a little ill. Can’t anyone write a complex interesting story that is not full of the need to kill? The answer is Rysa Walker can. I loved this series. Time travel is hard to do right and while a physicist might scoff, those of us looking to be entertained will be rewarded. I …
Very original. I was hooked from the beginning and had to know what was goi g to happen
