In Norby and the Queen's Necklace, Norby and Jeff find themselves having traveled through time back to 1785 France during the French Revolution. When they discover that Marie Antoinette's necklace has vanished due to interference from aliens, they must search both past and future to find the necklace and restore order to history.
About the Authors
Janet Asimov, with her late husband, Isaac, wrote the Norby series about a feisty half-alien robot. In the novels, Norby’s name comes from the original label---“Norb’s Nails”--- on his barrel body, but the authors actually stole the name from an early cyberneticist named Norbert Weiner. Janet is a retired M.D. and a non-retired writer who still lives in the Asimovs' beloved Manhattan, where Norby’s owner---a space cadet---also lives.
Isaac Asimov was a scientist, science fiction and fantasy writer. He was famously prolific and wrote over 700 books, among them the acknowledged classics Foundation and I Robot. He also co-wrote children’s books, including the Lucky Starr series, and the Norby Chronicles with his wife Janet.
