--Teen Titles magazine

This pacy, contemporary mix of action, suspense and fiery relationship is cleverly calculated to appeal to both boys and girls. Imagine if you were able to change history: by altering one tiny thing you could start a string of catastrophic events. Nathan is one of the Named, fated to stop this ever happening - although the forces of chaos have other ideas.

He is also a normal schoolboy, with a life which is rapidly becoming too confusing, and when Isabel arrives on the scene, it only make things worse: at first. This is history in the making - literally.
