OverviewTwo groups of teenagers - one middle-class students struggling for social justice, the other bar room toughs out for a brawl to right their own perceived wrongs - are thrust through a twist in the loop of time to the violent days of Medieval England. Trapped in a dark era where human life is cheaper than bread and horrific torture is a popular entertainment, they find they must join forces or die. Dogged by death every step of the way, each finds that experience of modern life has provided a skill that might - just might - save the band from an excruciating fate. And one of the group - having lost a brother to the barbaric torture death of impaling - hides a very special secret. But as well as their own struggle for survival, the youngsters - each a convicted protestor - find themselves in a moral dilemma ...how to save their own skins whilst also fighting against the inhuman brutality and injustice suffered by new friends in a time where they don't belong. In the latest in his popular Time Shift series, Hugh McCracken transports his readers into the harsh realities of days gone by with a unique talent for interweaving breathtaking adventure and fine historical detail. These utterly believable pages turn faster and faster to reach an unforgettable climax as McCracken casts his spell. Excitingly illustrated throughout by Alan Geldard.
