Epic Zero 4: Tales of a Total Waste of Time
Book 4 in the popular, award-winning Epic Zero series!
Elliott Harkness thinks he has it all figured out. He's (sort of) in control of his powers and finally living the superhero life. But after a not-so-heroic encounter with a time-traveling crook, Elliott wakes up one morning to discover everyone in his life is gone... and he might be next!
Elliott realizes the time-trotting trouble-maker has traveled into the past and changed everything! In order to fix his reality, Elliott must follow him. However, he can’t mess with history or reveal his true identity, otherwise he might set off a chain reaction that alters his present forever! But his own existence is up for grabs when he meets his parents as young adults, and they hate each other! And that’s not all! A mysterious villain is searching for a powerful cosmic object that threatens the universe, and it may be buried in the past!
With the fate of the present riding on fixing the past, will Elliott become the epic hero he’s always wanted to be—or will he always be just an Epic Zero?

Epic Zero 4: Tales of a Total Waste of Time
Epic Zero 4: Tales of a Total Waste of Time is about Elliot Harkness thinking he is better with his powers and he is fully superhero. But once he encounters a time-traveling crook, he wakes up and everyone in his life was gone, and could’ve been next. He was in the past! During Elliot’s journey, he had to be anomynous because that would mess up the future. He meets his younger parents and they hate eachother. This book is good for teachers, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th graders. This book is full of action and it will sometimes make you chuckle.

I loved this book. In the begining the super heroes are fighting dinosaurs. When Epic Zero wakes up, everything is gone. A t-rex is destroying his village. Parts of the story feel real. In the middle he goes back in time. And finally at the end,
