The story begins in October 2000 and the oak trees hang precariously by the tips of their roots and are in danger of falling into oblivion and taking the acorn folk with them.
The Twins are lured into another world and told that they are the 'chosen ones' and must avert an environmental disaster that faces planet Earth.
Will the twins have enough imagination and faith in the Magic Zalam to succeed.
Only TIME will tell!
As the author explains, his book will come as fresh new blood to the fantasy adventure genre.
“Wizardry and magic have always been popular among young readers, but my series places its focus on the puzzling aspect of time. Time is relatively un-touched by children’s literature, so it was the perfect opportunity to introduce the young readership to something new,” says Page.
He continues, “With a whole new world created around the concept, the first book is a real page-gripper which will have readers’ imagination cogs spinning until the end.”
To date, the book has attracted a string of rave reviews.
For example, Berty (a reader) said that, “This book took me on a roller-coaster ride of wonderful and inventive imagination, truly a journey into the mind of a genius seen through the eyes of its two main characters Jack & Abbey (The Time Twins). The thing I loved in particular about this story was the way it straddled between the reality of real historical reference and the fantasy of the fictitious Oakland and its many many funny characters.”
“As well as a dive into fantasy this book also had me thinking as the twins try to solve all the puzzles challenges and riddles that they encounter on their adventure. Can't wait to find out what happens to the twins in the next book!!!”
With more books to come, fans are urged to keep a close eye on the author’s website for any official announcements.
