  <default_description>Gideon Seymour, cutpurse and gentleman, hides from the villainous Tar Man. Suddenly the sky peels away like fabric and from the gaping hole fall two curious-looking children. Peter Schock and Kate Dyer have fallen straight from the twenty-first century, thanks to an experiment with an antigravity machine. Before Gideon and the children have a chance to gather their wits, the Tar Man takes off with the machine -- and Kate and Peter's only chance of getting home. Soon Gideon, Kate, and Peter are swept into a journey through eighteenth-century London and form a bond that, they hope, will stand strong in the face of unfathomable treachery.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I liked this and the second book very much. I read it when it was first released in the US (Gideon the Cutpurse was the title then) and enjoyed the second one too.  I found it very imaginative combination of historical fiction, time travel, and steampunk sci-fi.  It reminded me of Susan Price's Ster...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/22475906">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I must admit that I struggled through this one; I just couldn't convince myself to care about these characters enough.  By the end, I was skimming for the most part, but I forged on, and I may even read the second in the trilogy.  Time machines just seem so over and out, and here all the good anachr...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41275525">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was my second try at getting through this book. Last time I made it a few chapters before ditching the thing, this time I forced myself to read a little past half-way through. I still can't get into it. The plot is slow and ambling, the characters interesting but with something missing. That's ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/45516199">more...</a>]]></body>

They were transported there by an anti-gravity machanie/time machanie, and their reaction that time-travel was possible--is so unbelie...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39057140">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Of the middle school selection I have been reading lately ,this has been an OK read. At least the language and the plot seemed promising but I found a lot of gaps in the telling. As I read, I felt some lapse in the reasoning. It did not feel smooth and logical; in the way the kids interacted and sor...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51117408">more...</a>]]></body>
