Book Two of The Threadbearer Chronicles
By Anthony DiFiore
History is not just written by heroes.
Sometimes, it is held together by those who refuse to let it break.
When fourteen-year-old Maria Alvarez is called back through time, she expects another test of courage. What she doesn't expect is to arrive in the middle of the bloodiest battle in American history-Gettysburg-where every decision carries the weight of thousands of lives.
Armed only with a mysterious watch that reveals the fragile threads of history, Maria discovers that something far worse than war is unfolding. A shadowy group known as the Severers is attempting to fracture the meaning of the battle itself-altering not just events, but what the world will believe afterward.
As cannon fire roars and soldiers fight to hold Little Round Top, Maria must walk a dangerous line. Intervene too much, and she risks unraveling history. Do nothing, and everything the battle stands for could be lost.
For the first time, Maria learns that preserving history doesn't mean saving everyone. It means protecting the space where courage, sacrifice, and choice still matter.
And the cost of doing so will stay with her forever.
Maria and the Battle for Gettysburg is a powerful blend of historical fiction and fantasy, exploring themes of moral courage, responsibility, and what it truly means to stand for something when the outcome is uncertain.
Perfect for readers who love adventure with heart, history with meaning, and stories that ask the hardest question of all:
If you could change history-should you?
