TimeRiders
Just before they died, three children are saved by a mysterious man with a promise of escape. A girl in a plane crash, a boy on the Titanic and a girl from a fire. They are TimeRiders, people whose work it is to correct time when people try to change it. Based in a time bubble in New York on the day on and before 9/11, they, along with Bob, the robot, are expected to detect a change, find what has changed, and travel back in time to correct it. But he small incidents of the past, are nothing compared to to what the week-old team is going to have to face - a change involving time travel, and a dangerous vision of a Utopia achieved using the Second World War and Adolf Hitler...
A creative book with an amazing essence of complete originality and imagination, with just a hint of history and normal life that gives a scarily realistic ring to the story...
7/10
