"As thrilling as a rollercoaster ride, this fantastical world of spies, spirits, ancient prophecies and hidden cities tests Josh to his limits..." The Booktrust, 2009 by "sci-fi author M.G. Harris, creator of the best-selling Joshua Files." Radio Times Magazine, 5th September 2013. Previously in Zero Moment Josh Garcia finally learned the truth about what happened to his father. He's also discovered how to unleash the power of an artifact known as the Bracelet of Itzamna. Josh is one of the guardians of the Ix Codex, which contains the knowledge needed to prevent a cosmic catastrophe. If they don't solve the puzzle of the codex, on 22 December an electromagnetic pulse will blast through the atmosphere. Technology will fail. Civilization will fall apart. But when Josh notices something distinctly odd about the world around him he begins to suspect that someone has altered time. To put everything back on track, Josh must risk the dangers of time travel and unravel history itself. He must journey back to when the Ix Codex first went missing. A dark, parallel reality awaits Josh in the ancient Mayan Snake Kingdom, and the bizarre present day in which 'God spared Mexico' - but from what? The fourth instalment of M. G. Harris's best-selling series, The Joshua Files, which has been translated into 17 languages.

Carole Mansur, 15 March 2008, The Telegraph • "Indiana Jones would have stiff competition in young Joshua Garcia . . . will have the reader begging for the rest of the series. Highly Recommended."

"As thrilling as a rollercoaster ride, this fantastical world of spies, spirits, ancient prophecies and hidden cities tests Josh to his limits..." The Booktrust, 2009 by "sci-fi author M.G. Harris, creator of the best-selling Joshua Files." Radio Times Magazine, 5th September 2013. Previously in Invisible City Josh Garcia found the Ix Codex, a lost book of the ancient Maya containing the key to surviving a cosmic catastrophe. It looked as though he'd saved the day, but there were still a few unsolved mysteries. What really happened to his father? Who stole the ancient artefact, the Bracelet of Itzamna - and why? Who is behind the mysterious sect that is determined to block the plans of Josh's new Mayan friends? Back home in Oxford he can't tell his mother or his friends about his adventures and his discovery of the codex. Now certain that his father's death was no accident, Josh starts to wonder if he can really trust his closest allies. Then a series of mysterious postcards arrive from Mexico, each one part of a cryptic puzzle leading him back there. When his mother goes on retreat over Christmas, leaving him to stay with a friend from school, Josh makes a break for it and heads for Mexico with his long-lost cousin Benicio. But when he finds out a shocking secret, the trail leads back to the Mayan ruins, and to a small town in old Mexico, where someone has been waiting a long time for Josh. It's time to return to where his adventure began, and confront the shocking truth about his own and his father's past - a truth that changes everything he knew about the world and plunge his life into turmoil.

Praise for Ice Shock: • "One of the rare sequels that improve upon the original. Touches of science fiction and fantasy add flavor to the action and adventure, as do Borgesian allusions and a charming tale of two long-dead lovers. A good bet for the thrill-seeking middle school crowd." 5 June 2011, Kirkus Reviews, • "An even more accomplished rollercoaster of a ride. No wonder Harris' Invisible City was the no. 1 debut of 2008. It wouldn't surprise us at Lovereading4kids if this second novel becomes one of the top titles of the year."
