In the town of Hobble, October never ends. As soon as Hallows Eve is over, the calendars turn back to October 1st, and the enchanted wonders begin again . . . In this first adventure of the October series, Notch Cricklewood is bored by his life at the Museum Of Wonders, where he lives amongst statues and relics from the distant past. Though his father and grandfather hope for him to apprentice with them at the museum, Notch is hungry to live his own adventures and make history. When all the children in Hobble begin to mysteriously disappear, Notch sets out to solve the vanishings in order to make a name for himself. But when a member of the Vothlor army kills someone close to him, the new war becomes much more personal. Notch's persistence soon leads him on a quest to find the legendary Time Crystal - an ancient relic that gives its possessor the power to change the course of history. If he can find the crystal, he believes he can save the missing kids and bring the dead back to life. But what if the Vothlor find it first? THE TIME CRYSTAL is Book 1 in the innovative new OCTOBERS series by J.H. Reynolds and Craig Cunningham. Journey through the same October through four different perspectives. In addition to THE TIME CRYSTAL, read THE HERMIT'S MANSION (Book 2), THE WATCHTOWER SECRET (Book 3), and the PROTECTOR'S EMERALD (Book 4) to solve all the mysteries of the Vanishing, and embark upon an adventure unlike any you've taken before.
