City of Masks, by Mary HoffmanYoung Adult, 2002
When Lucien find himself transported to a parallel sixteenth century Italy (Talia), he finds a release from the cancer that is slowly draining his life away. There he finds adventure, romance, and a city-state to save. But as wonderful as this all is, will he survive back in London where his home truly is?
Trackgeek: I enjoyed this a lot. While I hope that they don't try to elaborate on why there are time discrepancies between one world and the next in the other books, I did enjoy this one. I enjoyed the adventure that is told, and appreciate that the basis of the story doesn't have to do with traveling back in time in the same world (or reality) which always leads to problems.
