Synopsis
Ancient Greek prophecies. Exploding volcanoes. Chicago gangsters. Just another day in the life for Sam Faulkner in this propulsive sequel to THE BOOK OF TIME!
Sam Faulkner now knows his father is trapped in Vlad Tepes's castle, but he can't save him without the seven coins that will allow him to direct his travel to the right year in Time. So he sets off on a desperate journey through the ages to collect the coins -- to the oracle at Delphi, Pompeii before Mt. Vesuvius -- even Chicago in 1932, where he meets his seven-year-old grandfather. But things get wilder still when he finally finds his father, who is sick, dying, raving . . . and who insists they must rescue Sam's dead mother from Time!

From Booklist
Sam, who discovered in The Book of Time (2007) that his father traveled back in time and was imprisoned by Vlad the Impaler (Dracula), tries to transport himself back to fifteenth-century Wallachia. Unfortunately, time-travel snafus land him in ancient Greece and Depression-era America and Canada along the way. Though Sam has a full measure of courage, his quick wits and measured reflections prove just as essential to his mission. A crucial code depends upon knowledge of Roman numerals. From the exciting jacket art to the cliff-hanger ending, the second book in the Book of Time trilogy is a winner. Grades 5-8. --Carolyn Phelan
