Review
Move over Harry Potter, it is time for Jake Djones to take the limelight. Almost too exciting for bedtime reading. --The Telegraph Magazine, 24th September 2011
A cocktail of time travel, secret societies, double agents and edge-of-your-seat excitement, it's sure to fill that fantasy void. --Glamour Magazine, 4th October 2011
We are predicting extremely big things for this new adventure series from first-time novelist Damian Dibben. --YOU Magazine, Mail on Sunday, 4th September 2011
Time travel saga The History Keepers could be the next Harry Potter-style blockbuster. --The Observer, 18th September 2011
The History Keepers is the kind of book where when you start reading it you cannot put it down...I personally would give the book ten out of ten. --Guardian.co.uk, Children's Books, 13th September 2011

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I throughly enjoyed this book. It is full of mystery, suspence and adventure. The book is about an average teenagaer called Jake Djones who takes on an extremely dangerous mission: to rescue his missing parents, not just in place but in time. I found the book was very descriptive, describing every little detail. There was an explanation for everything, even how you time travel! The characters were funny and amusing with all their different personalities. I recommend this book for ten year olds and up.

(What's this?)
I thought this book would and could have been better descibed as "Dr Who and Harry Potter, meet Percy Jackson"
I couldn't put this book down, and I am 38 years old!!!
Thoroughly loved it, as to me it has all the facets needed to keep the book interesting, not overly done but above all, factual!
Can't wait for more books from this series to be released.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
My son loved this book - He's a very quick and avid reader.
He devoured all of Harry Potter at age 8 over a summer and has continued to read at a furious rate ever since. He's read every thing from Alex Ryder, Percy Jackson, The Conspiracy 365 series and now the Cherub and Henderson boy series.
This one went the same way as everything else although I think he found it slightly harder work (a good thing). I won't give the story away but as soon as he finished it he was asking for the next in the series..... So I reckon it's worthy of 5 stars!

NOT the new Harry Potter!
I was attracted to reading this book by the description of it being a cross between Doctor Who and Harry Potter. Loving both of those, I thought wow this book must be really good! Read more
