Description
MISSION: SAVE THE WORLD
DESTINATION: ANCIENT MONGOLIA
Seventeen-year-old Dan Renfrew leads a normal high school life full of all the usual challenges: homework, bullies, and the baffling world of dating. It would be enough for most teens, but Dan has a secret. He’s a time jumper, a member of a clandestine group tasked with journeying to the past to repair glitches in history that imperil subsequent events. This responsibility alone is daunting, but it’s even more crucial now. A band of rogue time jumpers is bent on taking over the world, and Dan can’t find any allies to join him in the fight to stop them.
In a last-ditch effort to foil the conspiracy, Dan and his partner Sam plunge into history together. Landing on the steppes of Mongolia in the year 1179, they meet a brave Mongol teen on a courageous quest to rescue his kidnapped wife. But Dan and Sam soon discover that there’s far more at stake than a stolen bride. They’re thrust into a desperate race against time to save the Mongol Empire—and the future of the entire world.

Featured Reviews

Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for providing a free audio arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This series has been fun so far! This is the third in the A Jump in Time series where we follow a couple of teenagers Dan and Sam as they go back to different time periods to find out more about the secret time jumping society Dan's Father was apart of while also learning from the past, but not altering it.
I don't want to go too much into detail as it is the third book in the series. You could read the book as a standalone, but I think you get more from it by reading it in order. It has a 90s feel to it, and a "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiago" kind of vibe to it. It is marketed as YA and appropriately so, but still a fun adventure for adults as well.
I definitely recommend, especially if you're a 90s kid, as it will bring back some nostalgic feelings.
