Description

The grandfather clock gave a single chime. It was a quarter past one, but two hundred years in the past... Eleven-year-old Joe Raven is an inventor. He spends his time creating small gadgets with extraordinary power. After discovering a note from the mysterious Granelda seeking help to overcome a vicious curse, he and his sister, Beth, are catapulted back to 1789. With evil spreading and time running out, what will it take to defeat the Marble Curse? Joe’s belief in gadgets, or Beth’s confidence in something more?

Fun story raising good questions

Full of gadgets, surprising plot twists, and terrible puns, this was a book we enjoyed with all our children. At the surface it is a great adventure story, but it also raises thoughtful questions about the relationship between faith and science, that which we can explain and that which we can't. Recommended.
