Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. It's like the start of a bad joke: A Master of Tomes, his apprentice, and ninety world-saving records get lost at sea. Unfortunately for Mei Li, the joke is her life. For two years she's been stranded in a remote village with no knowledge of where her master is or what's going on in the world. What she does know is (a) she refuses to be sacrificed to the god the villagers think live on the mountain, and (b) she fully plans on negotiating with said god (who, luckily for her, turns out to be a dragon more than happy to rescue her). Her relief over being rescued is short-lived when she learns that her master is still lost, along with the tomes detailing how to address pesky problems like five-thousand-year-old sleeping demons and disintegrating harbor walls-both of which threaten calamity within the next two months. To make matters worse, the Tomes Masters are the only people in the world who carry the knowledge of how to defeat these-as well as myriad other-looming disasters. With her master gone, everyone is looking to Mei Li for answers she doesn't have. Her options are to solve the disasters-with high potential for the world ending-or somehow find Master and the missing tomes. Right now, Mei Li wants to go back in time and punch her six-year-old self for being an idiot. Being able to read books all day is not worth the stress of dealing with ancient evil things on a regular basis.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Mei's checklist for the next year is simple. On the surface, at least. Travel back into the present to defeat Odom, Zaffi, and Kovel Below-check. Reunite and have words with her husband (you'd think a five-thousand-year-old dragon would know how to communicate)-check. Actually defeat Odom, Zaffi, and Kovel Below-well.that's a work in progress. Mei Li has a list of tasks longer than her arm, a team of experts willing to do the work, and a looming deadline for saving the world. Again. Solving-the-world problems seem to breed in the dark; she barely gets through one before she's got another. There is an end in sight, though. If she can reach it, then she can finally live in peace with her husband and go back to reading books all day. Mei Li can't think of a better way to spend the rest of her life. Assuming she lives to see it. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Apparently, time-travel spells have a sense of humor and don't take direction well. Mei Li could've done with knowing that beforehand, and fully blames Shunlei for not forewarning her.Instead of going back a few years to rescue the missing tomes, Mei Li finds herself thousands of years in the past, with the original events she needs to learn about still ten years into the future. She is stuck in a hurry-up-and-wait mode she doesn't appreciate.It doesn't help that this world is full of its own problems, and Mei Li has more than enough of those already. Now she must face shape-shifting demons, volatile water deities, and a murderous sword on a rampage all while trying to figure out why the spell sent her here in the first place.There are a few side benefits. Mei Li gets to meet younger Shunlei-or Shunlei the Red. It's also fascinating being with the first group of magical troubleshooters, the original founders before the Tomes system ever existed.And when the past starts to intertwine with the future in ways she never could have predicted, Mei Li prays she's able to navigate it without ruining the future. If she does, she fully plans on blaming Shunlei for that as well.…
