She’s got perfect posture, a nasty temper, and centuries of know-how. Will trying to fix the fourth dimension leave her trapped in a harsh new reality?

Ireland, 1100’s. Wilda Firestone doesn’t put up with incompetence. Awaiting extraction back to her regularly scheduled life in modern Toronto, the feisty sixty-year-old spends the days hanging out with druids and learning local lore. But when she and her two companions finally make contact with her boss, she realizes that thwarting the terrorists who are corrupting history has left their portal home out of order.

Tasked with sabotaging the enemy without modern backup, Wilda swears up a blue streak when her first few plans fall through. And the resourceful woman wonders if she’s overlooked a valuable source of talent for too long when her untried partners start offering up unique ideas.

Can she lead them through a deadly showdown and get everyone safely back to the future?

Veiled in Ancient Shadows is the wonderfully sassy fourth book in the Toronto Time Agents science fiction series. If you like mature heroines, vivid descriptions, and captivating snippets of history, then you’ll love C.N. Jackson’s dangerous delve into the past.

A great episode in Ireland in a great time traveling series

I love this series! I was introduced to this series with Book 3 and then read book 1 and then book 4 (and am now going to read Book 2). With that said, I would highly recommend that readers read book 3 before reading Book 4. Book 4's actions are immediately after Book 3 and I think it would be best for the reader to know the characters and the story so that the actions within book 4 make a bit more sense.The author is great about giving us a bit of a reminder so we can keep up with the story but I think one would enjoy it more if they had the actual experience of book3.The characters are fantastic, even in their flaws. I love the main character for these flaws because she's very much aware of them and while she doesn't always struggle against them, she feels very much like someone I would like to be friends with. And her teammates are equally full blooded and I came to care for them, very much.This author has built a fascinating world and I'm so glad I get to be a part of it.Bring on Book 5! I'll be done with Book 2 in a minute! :-DI received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

A 5 1/2 star read from one of my favorite authors.

Veiled in Ancient Shadows: A Historical Time Travel Adventure (Toronto Time Agents), my thirteenth read from author Christy Nicholas, co-written with author C.N. Jackson (a pen name). I first heard of this author when I received an email from Green Dragon Press and read An Immigrant's Tale: A Druid's Brooch Prequel Short Story 0.5 (Druid's Brooch Series), one thing lead to another and here I am 13 books later. Well-written with well-developed characters, in all a captivating, page-turning, well-written book! “I received a Kindle copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I look forward to reading more from this author, in fact Looming Sagas: A Historical Time Travel Adventure (Toronto Time Agents) is already on my TBR list and it doesn't release until February 27, 2026. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Definitely a character-driven series!

Even though there is more than enough action to please any action afficionado, this series truly is character driven. This story picks up right where the book 3 of the Time Travel Adventure Series left off with Wilda, Algernon, and Ian. In this book, we pick up a few more characters to either love or hate, as in the case of the monk, Odhan. I really enjoyed being there as Wilda was forced to live with the decisions that she made and the losses incurred as a result. I highly recommend this to all lovers of time travel, more “mature” female heroines, and to all those with an interest in ancient Ireland.

Great series, great characters!

I’m completely captivated by this series. The time travel reeled me in, but the characters and story keep me craving more. Wilda, the main character, feels like your surliest best friend. She demands the best of herself and everyone around her. She’s intelligent and fearless, but starting to feel her age at 60 years old. Wilda has been a demanding mentor to her talented group of companions, so by this fourth addition to the series, they are well aware of each other’s strengths. I enjoy how they utilize those strengths to find the trail of a ruthless time terrorist who’s always a few steps ahead. Aside from a captivating story, I appreciate the fascinating bits of history that accompany each story. I am so ready for the next book in the series!

Fun romp in the past, with some thought provoking moments! Yay ancient Ireland!

What a fun follow up! We learn more about the past, we get to see musings on ethics neatly integrated into the plot, some fun tech and how that get's reconciled with the 'magic' of the time (which is the real magic??)Definitely recommend reading the first one first, but you are still going to enjoy this.Full disclosure - I got an ARC because I couldn't wait to read this :-)
