About Rosalind Tate
Rosalind Tate writes fantasy books, including the bestselling Shorten Chronicles, the romantic time travel/sci-fi series launched in 2020.
Sophie Arundel, her dog Charlotte, and Sophie's soulmates, Hugo and Freddy, must survive perilous adventures in different parallel universes and defeat ever more powerful enemies. If they can't work out the portal's most terrifying secret, they'll never escape its power, and never return home.
The idea for the first book in the series, Stranded, came to Rosalind a few years ago while she was watching the TV show, Downton, and the time-travel series grew from there!
Stranded is set in an alternate 1925 England, in a grand country house. It sold 11,000 copies within a year, was a Page Turner Awards Finalist, and won the 2021 Readers' Favorite Silver Medal (Time Travel). For a few days in February 2021, Stranded outranked Outlander and Harry Potter on Amazon.
Book 2, Escape, was published to rave reviews in October 2021.
In Book 3, Exile, published in 2022, the four friends are trapped in a lawless, medieval realm.
In Book 3.5, Intermezzo, a novella published in 2023, exclusive to this website, Sophie’s in modern London. She gets married and has a baby, taking a break between time travel…
In Book 4, Defiance, also published in 2023, the gang find themselves in 1927 and a full-blown civil war.
In Book 5, Rome, published in 2024, Sophie’s in ancient Rome hunting for the artefact that can kill a god and save her daughter.
Book 6, Endgame, the last book of the series, will be published in 2025.
