There, Owen begins to understand his great responsibility and power as the Navigator.
"Starred Review. Here's a second novel in a trilogy that doesn't suffer from middle-book syndrome ... Another walloping good read from a master of the trade. Ages 10-13." - Kirkus Reviews.
"This book is an excellent choice for readers interested in time travel, fantasy, or adventure. "- Children's Literature
"Naturally, situations are set up for the final book in the trilogy. City of Time will certainly enjoy as much reader attention as the first book." - School Library Journal
