    About this series

    WHAT IF THE PAST BECAME YOUR FUTURE? A gripping adventure travelling back in time to the heyday of Victorian Crystal Palace fusing history, mystery and fantasy. Perfect for the young and the young at heart who love Dr Who, Harry Potter and Jodi Taylor.

    "A fantastic time travel adventure." Waterstones

    "A wistful, clever and hilarious adventure into the perilous world of the past! It's quirky and dark. And so much fun." Carrie Jones, New York Times best-selling young adult author

    Can a teenage time traveller be the saviour the world desperately needs while finding the strength to save himself?

    Joe's come a long way on his time travels. He's discovered the true meaning of friendship and the depths of his love for his family.

    But as time itself begins to unravel, and boundaries between the worlds of mortals and magic rip apart, Joe is faced with his greatest challenge yet.
