A Time Travel Adventure

Untimed by Andy Gavin

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Time travel sounds like fun, right? Go back in time and visit places you’ve read about that sound fascinating. Go forward in time and see what your future may hold. Well, maybe we don’t want to know too much about what lies ahead. But, you can time travel with some very interesting characters in Author Andy Gavin’s novel UNTIMED.

So open a copy of UNTIMED, for YA and really readers of just about all ages, get comfortable in your favorite chair with your favorite snack, and travel on a mad, funny, scary journey with Charlie, Yvaine and a clockwork man, as well as others. You may be surprised at the people you’ll meet. An interesting question is asked in the story. Can time travel change history? Now that’s something to think about. What do you think? Each chapter gives the year and place where the characters are, which helps to follow the action and see whether the travelers’ presence in that particular place at that particular time makes a difference in the world.

The reader gets a glimpse into the personal lives of the characters and may wonder why Charlie makes some of the decisions he makes, or why Yvanie does the things she does. Remember, they’re kids, doing the best they can with what life has handed them Andy Gavin keeps the action flowing, with the characters finding or making new problems for themselves with every step they take. Lovely black and white illustrations give the reader a glimpse at what some of the characters look like. I always like pictures in a book.

How will it all turn out? Will our hero and heroine change history completely, or will the world go on the way history is written? UNTIMED is worth your time. Enjoy.

I won a copy of UNTIMED in Good Reads First Readers Contest and am so happy I did.
