TimeRiders: Day of the Predator (Book 2)

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of TimeRiders: Day of the Predator, the second book in the TimeRiders series, read by Trevor White.

Liam O'Connor should have died at sea in 1912.

Maddy Carter should have died on a plane in 2010.

Sal Vikram should have died in a fire in 2029.

But all three have been given a second chance - to work for an agency that no-one knows exists. Its purpose - to prevent time travel destroying history . . .

When Maddy mistakenly opens a time window where and when she shouldn't have, Liam is marooned sixty-five million years ago in the hunting ground of a deadly - and until now - undiscovered species of predator.

Can Liam make contact with Maddy and Sal before he's torn to pieces by dinosaurs - and without endangering history so much that the world is overtaken by a terrifying new reality?

Make[s] the kind of breathtaking journey I wanted to begin again the moment I'd finished

—— Awfully Big Reviews

An addictive Jason Bourne/Pittacus Lore/Harry Potter mash-up. Nonstop action and a richly layered plot propel at a breakneck pace

—— Booklist

Mini Grey's extra details and clues in her artwork are always so entertaining and hopefully this is just the beginning for this charming and astute mouse and his detecting friend Emily.

—— The Guardian

It's full of hilarious tiny details, which our sharp-eyed hero - and clever parents and children - can spot to solve the mysteries.

—— The Oxford Times

This is picture book storytelling at its best. Text and illustration perfectly integrated so that the eye moves easily across the page and the attention is held. Every page is carefully designed allowing different perspectives, creating excitement and movement through the juxtaposition of whole page and split page spreads as well as techniques adopted from graphic novel or film. There are not enough picture books that can reach older children. This is one - and it is a delight.

—— Books for Keeps

This is an utterly delightful book, packed with quirky text and illustrations and reall unusual.

—— Parents in Touch

How can you not want to read this book over and over again? How can you not want to share it with everyone you meet?
