Why should I take a chance on Time Shifters: Into the Past?A. To get lost in the excitement of time travel just like intrepid time shifters, Maisie, Danny and Lizzie do! It's a fast paced adventure and survival story with the trio time travelling through history, with battles, the Great Fire of London and mysterious hooded riders to contend with. Q. Who would enjoy the Time Shifters series?A. Anyone with a sense of adventure who likes middle grade/young teen fantasy adventure stories or historical fiction. It's perfect for both boys and girls, and although it's aimed at 9-12 year olds, anyone can get swept up in Maisie, Danny and Lizzie's adventures. As author Debbie Young said in her review: "A compelling adventure story... I wouldn't be surprised if it has children clamouring to be taken to Warwick Castle to try to time shift themselves from Maisie's starting point, just as we've all at some time tentatively touched the back of an old wooden wardrobe hoping to find our way into Narnia."Q. If you could time-shift anywhere, where would you go?A. There are so many times and places I would want to time travel to! I'd definitely chose to go to the past and love the adventure of Medieval times with its castles, dungeons and battles. Seeing the Great Fire of London would be an epic adventure too - if a little dangerous as Maisie and Co find out! - but it would be fantastic fun to witness history come alive in front of me. Q. What's next in the series?A. Maisie, Danny and Lizzie are back in the second book, Time Shifters: A Long Way From Home, and their adventure concludes in Time Shifters: Out of Time.
