I first read this book when I was a teenager. It's been sitting on my bookshelf ever since, and the other day I picked it up on impulse when I was looking for something light and fun. A decade and a half or so after my first read, I'd managed to forget most of the plot points (and for some reason remembered one that wasn't even in there), so it was almost like reading it fresh.

Wow! I love this trilogy. Considering it took some persuation to get me reading the first one, I admit I covered all three in just over 24 hours! Now, admitting the following may have me tracked down and sanctioned but never mind.
I actually heard the characters and sounds in my head - in my own little world that's a sure sign of a good book! The narrator, Rachel drum tapping away .. it just all seemed so real and magical. I'm not completely nutty, honest, I just thoroughly enjoyed the series.

It's been years since I read this book, but I remember it being pretty good. Nice use of meta-humor and good juxtapositions of magic and technology.
A great continuation, and no mistake. The fun is all still there, and things are only looking more interesting
a very good second novel in the series. More fun than the first and if possible even weirder.
Arrgh! I don't have #3!
Silly fun!
The evil wizard gets hold of the scientists time machine, his only route home.
An enjoyable light read, on the silly side of things.
