  • Battle Before Time

    Jim Denney

    eBook (Writing in Overdrive Books, Jan. 14, 2020)
    Max McCrane is a young inventor who built his own time machine. But Max's life isn't easy—he just wants to fit in and make friends at Victor Appleton Middle School. His time machine—a rusty orange Volkswagen he calls Timebender—is a photon-powered vehicle that leaps across the centuries with ease. Climb aboard with Max and his companions—Allie O'Dell, Grady Stubblefield, and Toby Brubaker—as they face dinosaurs, alien Emissaries, and mankind's most ancient and terrifying Enemy, the Silver Dragon. Author JIM DENNEY has written more than a hundred books, but the Timebenders series is his favorite. “Each Timebenders tale,” he says, “is a thrill-ride through time and space—and timeless truth.” Jim is a member of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA).Note to Parents and Grandparents: The Timebenders Series is Christian fiction for Middle Grade readers, ages 9 to 13. These books deal with themes of faith, courage, character, and spiritual warfare from a biblical Christian perspective. Young readers who enjoy the fiction of C. S. Lewis, Madeleine L’Engle, and Bill Myers will enjoy the Timebenders Series.
