The travelers from Avalon are anxious to get home to the twenty-first century. In Avalon, Season Nine: The Masters, the travelers move through the renaissance and the reformation, the ages of enlightenment and exploration, the industrial and other revolutions. They just want to finish their journey through time, but the Masters seem to be everywhere trying to send the human race off course. If the Masters can turn humanity to despair, and make people beg for safety, security, and solutions, then with kind words and empty promises the Masters can take over. That would bring eternal ruin to this Earth and destroy the future forever.
The travelers originally came to Avalon in the Second Heavens so they could be transported instantly through the Heart of Time to the beginning of history. They go on a rescue mission and expect to be transported back to the future in the same way they came but things do not go as planned. The Kairos-the Storyteller, has to jump into the void before history and becomes lost in eternity. Now, in order to get home, the travelers must return the slow way, following the Amulet of Avalon that points the way from one time gate to the next. They cross dangerous time zones that center around the many lives of the Kairos, the Traveler in time, the Watcher over history, a person who never lives a quiet life.
They have unlimited vitamins and elf crackers for their health, and unlimited bullets which are needed far too often. They ride mustangs brought back from the old west, and wear fairy weave clothing that they can shape and change with a word in order to blend into the local culture. By a special gift of the Kairos, they can understand and be understood no matter the local language. Inevitably, they have to deal with thieves and brigands, armies and empires, gods and monsters, spirits and creatures, space aliens and the great unknown. They try hard not to disturb history along the way. That is not so easy.
To be sure, all they want is to get home in one piece, but they are not the only ones lost in time. Some people lost in time might want to follow them or go with them. Other people are not so friendly, and not everything lost in time is a person. Some want to fight the travelers. Some want to hunt them.
Avalon is like a television series. It is not necessary to start with Season One. Like any good TV series, one or two episodes will introduce the characters and make clear how the story works. Each episode is a story unto itself, and there are thirteen episodes packed into each book. After reading this season you may wish to go back and power read the series from the beginning but it is not necessary to enjoy this book.
