'The windows on all the skyscrapers are smashed...
No power, no lights, no people...
It's a parallel New York of some kind.'

But this is no ordinary clique - they have access to an underground portal that can transport them into the future.

And what Skye discovers in the future is horrifying.

As society crumbles, Skye and Red race to figure out how to use their knowledge to survive the impending annihilation, they soon discover that the chaotic end of the world is perfect time for revenge...

A time travel book for teenagers

I chose this book because my favorite genre is time travel and I enjoy most of Matthew Reilly’s books. It took me awhile to get into it because the time travel element took awhile to come about. Also it is really geared toward teenagers.
Once I finally got into the story I enjoyed the book.
During an interview with the author, Reilly stated that this was a stand alone book but I wonder if that is true as there seems to be clues to the possibility of more to come.
One thing I DID NOT like about the book was the use of the “f” word. Now I was a high school teacher/librarian so I know that some teenagers use profanity but not all, so I don’t know why authors have to include this type of language. I currently volunteer in a library at a Christian school and would have recommended this book it it hadn’t used the profanity.

Another romping Matthew Reilly adventure

Loved it. Was glad to see another story from the female voice. And time travel as well, win!
