Gerard Doyle
Historical detail comes alive as debut author Linda Buckley-Archer weaves the 18th century trials of Gideon, Kate, and Peter with the modern-day worries of their parents and the wily investigator trying to piece together the children's disappearance. A time-travel tale in the tradition of Mark Twain with a touch of Back to the Future, the first audiobook of the Gideon trilogy introduces listeners to a modern genre all its own.

Would you consider the audio edition of Gideon the Cutpurse to be better than the print version?
I'm certainly not a young adult but I really enjoyed this story. Combining physics and cosmology (explaining things like dark matter) made the book very engaging. Characters were well developed and I loved the narrator.What other book might you compare Gideon the Cutpurse to and why?
The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel come to mind. That series was incredible!I'm expecting that a follow up book to Gideon and the Cutpurse is in the works as the story ended quite abruptly.
Which character – as performed by Gerard Doyle – was your favorite?
I loved the children.If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
The unseen world of past and future.Any additional comments?
There seemed to be an underlying theme of good vs evil in the book and on some level the invitation for goodness. It wasn't preaching but the consequences of not living a good life were conveyed through Gideon.Engaging Young Adult Fantasy Sci-Fi

Excellent book

It's junior fiction.
That being said, it is very well read and a very enjoyable book as it keeps a fun pace. Being 30 something myself I found myself cringing a couple of times at some of the scenes in this book that depict people as being open, honest and charitable (just like real life, huh?). Worth reading, pick it up if you feel like reading about a world with a couple honest people in it.
