Product Description
Review
David Johnson lives in Wiltshire with his family, friends and pets. His love of travel, history, Sci-fi, films, books and current affairs have all contributed to this story. His time in Wiltshire has led to his fascination with local places like Stonehenge, Avebury and neighbouring Glastonbury. Overseas travel has wetted his appetite for ancient cultures and mysteries.
Product Description
The Earth of the future is a nightmare dictatorship run by evil super-humans and their alien masters. The only way to save the Earth is for a hero from today to travel through time on a perilous quest to stop the aliens taking over! Just who is that hero destined to save the world? Twelve-year-old James Lightwater - future cutting-edge scientist! But James has only one week to complete his mission - to reach the twelve sacred zodiac crystals of Atlantis and destroy their power before the aliens can use it to take over the world. Can James outwit the aliens and super-villains determined to stop him? The race becomes a deadly chase...

4.0 out of 5 stars
refreshing new childrens sci fi,
By A Customer
This review is from: Crystal Quest: Time Trap Pt. 1 (Paperback)
I found this book a refreshing alternative for childrens sci fi rather than yet another filled with wizards. This a fast paced science fiction/ time travel adventure, based around a young boy who is thrown into a quest against his will. I found this easy to read, yet packed with colourful characters and a twisting plot full of surprises.The time travel sequences I found believable and well described; a good mix of fun, adventure and historical fact. Excellent for the 8years and above age group.I can't wait for the next quest!

Great for Keystage 2,
By sara sankey (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crystal Quest: Time Trap Pt. 1 (Paperback)
I have recently read this book and decided to use it as a sci-fi focus in my year 4 class. It was enjoyed by all and especially the boys, who all wanted to be James by the end. The children and I can't wait for the quest to continue! Well done David Johnson for a great read and use of imagination!

View from Ireland,
This review is from: Crystal Quest: Time Trap Pt. 1 (Paperback)
This book sucks the reader in from the first page. I thought that time travel stories had been done to death; however this one pleasantly surprised me. It's got a good mix of humour and action, which blends into a gripping story, filled with sub plots and hidden agendas. The first few chapters spend a lot of time setting the scene, before the real story gets going, so persevere-it's worth it!
On one side you have mythical Atlantis, the zodiac, energy crystals, aliens, genetically engineered super villains and a secret society. On the other a school boy, a weird computer from the future, a sarcastic cricket ball-device and a High Priest from Stonehenge! Sounds outlandish, but the story pulls it all together very well and left me wanting to read part 2. Some schools in Southern Ireland are now using this book as part of their literacy work, and it was featured as part of the Irish international writers event in Listowel earlier this year.
