Series: Alice Payne

Alice Payne returns in the thrilling sequel to Alice Payne Arrives.

After abducting Arthur of Brittany from his own time in 1203, thereby creating the mystery that partly prompted the visit in the first place, Alice and her team discover that they have inadvertently brought the smallpox virus back to 1780 with them.

Searching for a future vaccine, Prudence finds that the various factions in the future time war intend to use the crisis to their own advantage.

Can the team prevent an international pandemic across time, and put history back on its tracks? At least until the next battle in the time war.

Reviews for Alice Payne Rides (#2 Alice Payne)

"Praise for Alice Payne Arrives ""Twisty time wars, highway robbery, 18th century lady scientists, queer joy. How could I not love this? Alice Payne Arrives at a gallop, breathlessly blending historical fiction and SF tropes, then turning them on their heads."" --Sarah Pinsker ""Whip smart, and packed with irresistible characters and fast-paced adventure. A playful, pointed, and brilliantly inventive remix of history that unfolds like the most fascinating puzzle box--each new twist and reveal a delight. Counting the days to the sequel."" --S.L. Huang ""Fraught with danger, subterfuge and timeline changes-- there's no lull in action."" --Aurealis"
