Book Description

“Jeffrey’s descriptions of how time has stopped will stop readers in their own tracks. Plenty of action-adventure appeal.” — Booklist “An imaginative addition to the middle-grade speculative adventure canon.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books “This fast-paced adventure...will keep readers turning the pages. The incorporation of figures from Sumerian mythology adds an interesting element that may appeal to fans of Rick Riordan’s “Percy Jackson” series.” — School Library Journal “Riveting. The Pocket and the Pendant is not what you expect, no matter what you expect.” — Scott Sigler, New York Times bestselling author “A fresh, fun and fascinating idea deftly brought to life. With all its deeply–felt adventure, Max Quick should quickly captivate young readers.” — James Jennewein and Tom S. Parker, authors of the RuneWarriors Trilogy “A wildly imaginative romp through the vagaries of time, Max Quick leads the reader on a high–speed tour of ancient myths, alien kingdoms and some books you can really throw yourself into. Terrific adventure at breakneck speed.” — Richard Newsome, author of The Billionaire’s Curse
