Anachronist: A Time Travel Adventure by Andrew Hastie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
17 year old Josh lives with his sick mother in a South London housing estate. He owes money to the local gang leader Lenin and has been in and out of trouble since he was 12 years old. When he sees a local eccentric leave the door to his house open one morning Josh sees an opportunity to steal something - instead he is transported back to 1944 and General Stauffenberg's attempt to kill Hitler.
The local eccentric, nicknamed the Colonel by Josh's gang, takes Josh under his wing and introduces him to a secret society of time-travellers, will Josh use his new powers to get away from his life of crime or will he use it to further his life of crime?
This book was recommended by my sister and when I saw i could borrow it free on Amazon Prime I leapt right in. It has everything, poverty, gangs, WWII, ancient Rome, cool gadgets, romance, intrigue, fast cars, mythical creatures, and more.
And the ending … Can't wait to start the next one.
