The Time Magus, A Time Travel Adventure
language
( Nov. 17, 2010)
Are you amazed by technology and sometimes said that it is magic? Time travel has long been a fantasy, but perhaps it is only magic we have yet to master and understand.
If you’ve ever been given something special to take care of and you dropped or lost it—like I have—you will sympathize with thirteen-year-old Jeff. He not only loses a powerful, high tech, prototype computer, the Magus, but also, it travels back in time to 1937.
To his astonishment, Jeff begins to email across time with Claire, the girl who finds the Magus. He’s shocked to learn she’s seriously ill in a tuberculosis sanatorium and may die. In 1937 many young people died of tuberculosis.
As their friendship develops, she reveals her family plans to return to the United States on the German zeppelin the Hindenburg. Jeff alerts Claire to the horrible fate of the zeppelin. Weak and constantly supervised, she must somehow escape from the sanatorium to warn her family.
This brush with the past stuns Jeff. What would happen if the all-powerful Magus fell into the wrong hands and someone unscrupulous made use of its secret powers. Jeff must destroy the Magus, but how?
I know you are thinking this is just another time travel story. It’s not. Everyone likes a good story and reading this book will open your mind to the possibilities of the powerful technologies you can now hold in your hand.
