My review:
Unfortunately I didn't have the luck to read the 2 previous book in the series.but I did some "homework" to understand what I am reading about. The story is written from both points of view of the main characters Trent and Cassie. While we got rid from the evil Dr. fox we acquired new villeins.
The language in the book is very typical today "teens", so for YA it is ideal. There is another thing that make the book suitable for YA, is that the relationships are hardly more then some mare kisses and hugs. The reading itself were fast pace and along the way a lot of turning and change overs.
Trent Astor - when he was 12 years old, the car that he was traveling in with his parents, spun out of control and ended up going over a cliff, killing his parents. By some sort of miracle, he survived. The tragedy of his parents death made Trent "grow up" faster than any child should. He had his younger sister Lorelei to look after and trying to have a normal life was out of the question. Something supernatural happened to Trent while he lay waiting in the wreckage.
Since then he was able to physically time travel. He would get visions of people getting hurt or injured, and before he knew it, he would end up traveling to that point in time, and he knew that he was meant to change the outcome of sorts.
In the beginning of the book he don't jump, in fact it look that the ability to jump and the treat, mysteriously passed to Cassie. The book actually open with Cassie disappearance to another time line to save a boy from the wolves and Trent had to wait for till she came back. To make things more complicated all Dr, Fix send "long hands from his grave", and his research somehow reached and publishes at the scientific magazines. And then..... He suddenly disappeared.......
Cassie Moore - Once a girl whose tennis dreams were shattered after she gets shot, and who has to live with the aftermath for the rest of her life. Now it is her term to experience the meaning of time travel. At the beginning she is in denial and lose precious time to train and to learn to control it. What she going to tell her parents? how ah going to explain her sudden disappearances and repeating sickness?
The problem is that her parents in this life time are over protective. They don't like and also are not excepting Trent. They demand that she will cut their relationship altogether and claim that he have a bad influence on her.
Jeff - He is the son of her parents best friends. At This life time Cassie thought that they succeeded to erase all clue to that their relationship is no more then good friends, maybe something of a sibling. Trent can't forget what was and he can't trust him and even feel jealousy. All was well till Jeff fell on his head during a play of basket ball. and then weird thing start to happen.
