Timeless enemies. Timecrossed lovers. A future in freefall...

At twenty, Artemis has just graduated top of her Cambridge class of assassins, the most respected discipline in the Faculty’s army. As a timeless soldier, she will travel in and out of linear time, protecting the fragile future with her lethal hands. Along with her crew – a navigator, an armourer, a historian and a physician – she will do whatever it takes to stop the destruction of history by dangerous time vandals.

Although Artemis might look like she’s got everything she ever wanted, growing up in Cambridge hasn’t been easy. Assassins must be ruthless to survive and she’s made enemies, discarded a fair few lovers and has a secret that could lose her everything she’s worked for. And things don’t get any simpler once she and her crew start to travel. On assignment, all timeless soldiers must obey four fundamental rules:

Never betray the Faculty
Never let a time vandal live
Never fall in love with a target
Never die in linear time

But Artemis is going to meet a time vandal who has been waiting for her. And despite knowing this man is devastation distilled – that he is the very war she is fighting – she is going to break all the rules and let him live. As he follows her through time and space, Art is going to become obsessed with two questions: why is he so determined to be everywhere she is?

And why can’t she bring herself to kill him?

A.F. Steadman

A.F. Steadman’s journey into the world of fantasy started with a spark of wonder and an imagination unbound by the rules of the ordinary. Born and raised in Kent, England, she found solace in books and daydreams, conjuring tales of faraway lands and magical creatures. While her early years were steeped in academic pursuits, including a master’s degree in creative writing from Cambridge, the call of storytelling never truly faded.

Before embarking on her writing career, Steadman ventured into the legal world, where she quickly realized that the only law she truly cared about was the one governing fictional realms. This realization led her to leave behind a career in law and dive headfirst into her passion for writing, leading to her debut novel, Skandar and the Unicorn Thief. This book, part of the Skandar series, offers a refreshing take on mythical creatures, presenting unicorns not as gentle, mystical beings but as fierce, bloodthirsty warriors—an approach that quickly captivated readers and critics alike.

What sets Steadman apart is her ability to breathe new life into familiar tropes. Her writing is rich with world-building, layered characters, and a sense of adventure that leaps off the page. The Skandar series has quickly grown into a beloved collection, with sequels like Skandar and the Phantom Rider and Skandar and the Chaos Trials continuing to explore a world where danger, loyalty, and courage reign supreme. Her work transcends simple fantasy, blending heart-pounding action with deeper themes of friendship, unity, and bravery.

Beyond the pages, her books have garnered widespread recognition, securing her a three-book deal with Simon & Schuster and a film deal with Sony Pictures. Through her imaginative storytelling, Steadman is building not just a fanbase, but a world in which readers can immerse themselves fully.

Reflecting on her journey, Steadman believes in the power of togetherness, once stating, “We’re heroic when we work together.” This philosophy threads through her work, where every character—whether human or unicorn—must learn that true strength lies in community and cooperation.

A.F. Steadman’s tales are a gateway to worlds brimming with magic, danger, and endless possibility, inviting readers of all ages to embark on thrilling adventures that will stay with them long after the final page is turned.
