On Tuesday night, I thoroughly enjoyed an evening at the Knickerbocker Club, where Daisy Goodwin gave a brilliant talk about Queen Victoria and showed some upcoming clips from the PBS show. She is the screenwriter and an Executive Producer on the show, as well as the author of a book about the queen; I had caught the first two hours of the program on Sunday night, and it was so enjoyable.

Last time we saw Etta and Nicholas, they had been separated with Etta orphaned in another time that could be centuries away or across the world. Even worse, the astrolabe, an object full of immense power, was stolen from them and placed in unknown hands. From Alexandra Bracken, the author of the Darkest Minds trilogy, WAYFARER picks up almost exactly where PASSENGER had previously left off, continuing the final chapter in a whirlwind time travel duology.

About the Book
Etta Spencer didn't know she was a traveler until the day she emerged both miles and years from her home. Now, robbed of the powerful object that was her only hope of saving her mother, Etta finds herself stranded once more, cut off from Nicholas --- the eighteenth century privateer she loves --- and her natural time.
When Etta inadvertently stumbles into the heart of the Thorns, the renegade travelers who stole the astrolabe from her, she vows to finish what she started and destroy the astrolabe once and for all. Instead, she's blindsided by a bombshell revelation from their leader, Henry Hemlock: he is her father. Suddenly questioning everything she's been fighting for, Etta must choose a path, one that could transform her future.
Still devastated by Etta's disappearance, Nicholas has enlisted the unlikely help of Sophia Ironwood and a cheeky mercenary-for-hire to track both her and the missing astrolabe down. But as the tremors of change to the timeline grow stronger and the stakes for recovering the astrolabe mount, they discover an ancient power far more frightening than the rival travelers currently locked in a battle for control…a power that threatens to eradicate the timeline altogether.
Audiobook available, narrated by Saskia Maarleveld.
