“WELL IN TIME reminded this reviewer of the magical realism novels of great writers like Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa and Isabella Allende, weaving the sacred and the profane; past, present and future; love and hate, the beauty and the ugly within and without nature and so much more. Suzan Still is more than a novelist; she’s a literary giant with a gift for beautiful prose, brilliant plotting and revealing characterization that enhances every page of this phenomenally constructed novel. Kudos to you, Suzan Still – and please, please, please keep writing!” —Crystal Book Reviews Through a series of telescoping stories, Well in Time plunges back from the present day through medieval Europe to ancient Egypt in quest of the origins of an object of magical power. Novelist Calypso Searcy is gifted an ancient golden locket that confers the ability to know the future through dreams. It opens intriguing vistas into history, but while writing her account of the locket’s past, disaster strikes in the present. Rancho Cielo, the ranch she and her lover Javier Carteña have created with their own hands in Mexico’s Copper Canyon, comes under attack by a Mexican drug cartel. Leaving Javier to defend the ranch with his army of hands, Calypso embarks with her friend Hill on a wild escape that takes them through remote and treacherous territory and delivers them into the hands of a mysterious group, the Ghosts, who may be more dangerous than the cartel from which they are fleeing. As the stories of the locket and of Calypso’s escape weave together, parallels appear that cause her to question who she really is, and what the real meaning of her life might be. The sequel to the acclaimed novel FIESTA OF SMOKE, WELL IN TIME is based in actual historical events and in the wisdom of timeless mysteries known as the Perennial Philosophy. It is a singular reading experience.

Review PRAISE FOR SUZAN STILL'S FIESTA OF SMOKE:“Suzan Still’s Fiesta of Smoke is an extraordinary book, encompassing a vast time frame yet bringing the possibility of a contemporary Mexican revolution to vivid life through its beautifully tuned, disparate voices. With a tonality that at times echoes the quiet grace of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s Love in the Time of Cholera, matched by passages that have the psychotic edginess of Breaking Bad, Fiesta of Smoke is a book that will both compel and seduce you to read it to its haunting conclusion.”—Alexander Stuart, author of The War Zone and Life On Mars“As with the brush of a muralist, Suzan Still has captured fifty years of the history of Mexico in vivid color. This passionate, nonlinear novel explores the lives of three very different people involved in decades of political upheaval, and sounds the depth of injustices done for centuries there. Gripping in its detail, and daring in its reach, Fiesta of Smoke is a moving portrayal of the disparate cultures and complexity of a turbulent, beautiful country.”—M. E. Hirsh, author of Kabul and Dreaming Back
About the Author Suzan Still lives in the foothills of Sierra Nevada mountains with her husband and an assortment of rescued fur children. She is the author of a debut novel, COMMUNE OF WOMEN.

Along with their good friend, Walter Hill By Louise Jolly WELL IN TIME is the sequel to Suzan's second novel 'Fiesta of Smoke' but most definitely can be read as a stand-alone.Javier Cartena and Calypso Searcy return for another exciting, sit-at-the-edge-of-your-seat adventure! An ancient gold locket, which was a gift, has the ability to tell the future; sometimes through a whispered word, sometimes during a dream. Calypso also has the ability to wander through different worlds; the present and a world where she meets a group known as 'The Ghosts'. They are a very dark, scary, mysterious group who mean business.While searching the locket's past, Calypso and Javier's ranch in Mexico is attacked by a certain drug cartel. Along with their good friend, Walter Hill, Calypso manages to escape unseen. Thus begins her journey through another world where everything she ever knew about herself is tested to the nth degree - her physical strength, her endurance, her emotional and spiritual strengths. WELL IN TIME has such a stong mystical aspect to it that Calypso carefully straddles the line that divides worlds and tests her ability to stand in either.My favourite part of the book is when Calypso takes us through the caves and into the tunnels. You won't believe what she goes through and will want to keep reading and reading. Some of the tunnels are so constricting we don't know whether she is going to get through or have to turn back again and again to locate an alternate route. Ms. Still's writing is so descriptive and vivid that you'll feel like you literally can't breathe as you transverse the tunnels with Calypso. You almost have to the put the book down to catch your breath and psyche yourself up that you can do this, never mind Calypso! The writing is just phenomenal.Through their struggles both Calypso and Javier learn that there is more to life than they both thought and that you don't always have to be together to accomplish your goals. You can change, you can be alone and be okay with that, and you can force yourself to be a more positive influence in this world and on the people around you.Suzan Still has outdone herself with WELL IN TIME. She is a literary queen with the ability to pen the most beautiful prose, creating characters, and plotting her story to get the most bang for the buck.I whole-heartedly believe WELL IN TIME is going to be a huge success and I wish Ms. Still great success. Thank you for providing me with the best two days of reading I've done in quite some time.

From this day forward you are an emissary of the Great Mother. She has spoken” (p.324).Suzan Still has once again created a masterpiece in her third novel, Well In Time, with all the suspense and symbolism of a Dan Brown in The Da Vinci Code and all the wisdom and knowledge of a Riane Eisler in The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future. How does one go about creating a review of this manuscript, the Great Mother’s labor of love, that can even begin to do it justice? Whether known as Isis, Astarte, Sa Tahuti, Allia, Blanche, Atl, Calypso, Suzan Still, or by any other name, the Great Mother has spoken throughout the rivers of time. Whether persevering in the horrors of scaling cliffs behind leading only to drug cartel devastation, surviving the near suffocation of moving through the secret heart depths of the Great Mother’s life and death birth canal, or facing the ghosts of Jesuit CIA death-squad priests ahead, Calypso once again brings the message of hope and redemption for all mankind in the Great Mother’s cycle of life, death, birth, renewal, repentance, and redemption. In the simple words spoken to a sinner, “Mijo, my son,” the legacy of the message of redemption and hope in the 1000s-year-old image of Isis/Mary with Horus/Jesus on her lap lives on. Through Suzan Still the Great Mother has spoken “well in time” for rebirth, redemption, and renewal in a world gone mad in violence and chaos. “No one in the twenty-first century is innocent, Miss Searcy. People just have varying degrees of awareness of their guilt” (p. 283). Anyone reading Suzan Still’s manuscript cannot help but come away with a higher knowledge of that guilt and the awareness of how to repent and redeem it. I highly recommend Suzan Still’s Well In Time to all seeking that awareness as an “emissary of the Great Mother,” and to all who are not yet knowing enough to be aware.

By Viviane Crystal Javier Cartena and Calypso Searcy have returned in this sequel to Feast of Smoke and are again deliberately and inadvertently spun into a cycle of violence and divine intervention that keeps spinning and spinning and spinning. Javier and Calypso, as well as their good friend Hill who is an investigative journalist, are as deeply in love as ever. But they are not to have any piece due to the prevailing drug cartels thriving in Mexico, one of whom will attack Javier’s ranch. Javier will stay behind to defend his home and Calypso is about to begin a journey that involves crawling through tube-like caves barely fitting any human being.In the process of this fantastic journey, stories within stories will be told, like a Russian Matryoshka nesting doll, revealing layers and layers of mystery, myth, legend, all emanating the sacred. The tales involve communities worshiping the Great Mother, Isis, also known as Mary in Christian circles. They involve the marriage of Egyptian gods and goddesses and the enmity arising in their children, the efforts of some to squelch the worship of these divine beings in medieval Europe, and so much more. The journey also involves Calypso being saved and threatened by a group known as “The Ghosts,” criminals who are reformed but who use a dangerous drug to get information from those who would eliminate them. All of these stories and events will culminate with a gift to Calypso that is approximately 4,000 years old, a gift bequeathed by the descendant of the Great Mother herself, a piece of jewelry that only a woman can wear and which gifts the wearer with dreams of the future or occurrences in the present in different places.Well in Time reminded this reviewer of the magical realism novels of great writers like Gabriela Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa and Isabella Allende, weaving the sacred and the profane; past, present and future; love and hate, the beauty and the ugly within and without nature and so much more. Suzan Still is more than a novelist; she’s a literary giant with a gift for beautiful prose, brilliant plotting and revealing characterization that enhances every page of this phenomenally constructed novel. Kudos to you, Suzan Still – and please, please, please keep writing!
