It's difficult to tell in a time travel story, but I'm fairly sure all the loose ends were tied off in this third book of the trilogy, although Chevron's story concludes with (in the immortal words of the Doctor) some timey-wimey stuff. The science is dodgy, but it is a fun YA science fiction story with interesting characters. Time travel books necessarily involve lots of things that really don't make sense - which can make your head hurt if you think too much about it. What makes this book really work are the characters - Riley and Chevie are such likable people that you can't help rooting for the impossible. The overall arc of this series is satisfying as well with the story returning to the events of the first novel. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

HTML:Riley, an orphan boy living in Victorian London, has achieved his dream of becoming a renowned magician, the Great Savano. He owes much of his success to Chevie, a seventeen-year-old FBI agent who traveled from the future in a time pod and helped him defeat his murderous master, Albert Garrick. But it is difficult for Riley to enjoy his new life, for he has always believed that Garrick will someday, somehow, return to seek vengeance. Chevie has assured Riley that Garrick was sucked into a temporal wormhole, never to emerge. The full nature of the wormhole has never been understood, however, and just as a human body will reject an unsuitable transplant, the wormhole eventually spat him out. By the time Garrick makes it back to Victorian London, he has been planning his revenge on Riley for centuries. But even the best-laid plans can go awry, and when the three are tossed once more into the wormhole, they end up in a highly paranoid Puritan village where everything is turned upside down. Chevie is accused of being a witch, Garrick is lauded as the town's protector, and...is that a talking dog? Riley will need to rely on his reserve of magic tricks to save Chevie and destroy his former master once and for all. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

It's a great conclusion to a great series. As always, Eoin Colfer never fails to have humor, action, and crazy adventures in his books!
Another thing I love about his books is that while they're written for a younger audience he doesn't treat that audience as if they are stupid and can't comprehend difficult topics. I can't wait until my son is old enough to be able to see exactly why I fell in love with this author from the beginning! ( )
