Synopsis

The fate of two worlds is at stake in this new addition to a series that blends fantasy and legend.

Seven years after the events of The Shadow Dragons, John, Jack, and Charles are finally able to return to their beloved Archipelago of Dreams. But even as old friends celebrate their return, new concerns shadow the reunion: the threat of Ecthroi, primordial Shadow. And perhaps even worse, the apparent splintering of Time itself.

Now the Caretakers must fight against their most fearsome enemy ever and attempt to restore Time, journeying through a forgotten Door from the destroyed Keep of Time in order to seek out the Dragon’s Apprentice. Failure will mean the end of both of the worlds. But success will carry its own price—a price that may be too high even for the Caretakers to bear.

OK, I will freely admit that, between the lengthy gap between when I read the previous book in this series and when I read this one and the increasing use of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff on which to base the plot, I kind of have no idea what’s going on in this story anymore. It mostly lost me rig......more

James A. Owen is awesome in create fun, curious intertextual compositions. He isn´t, however, as good creating time-travel stories. Unfortunatelly, Imiaginarium Geographica lost it´s focus on adventures on the Archipelago of Dreams, guided by the most awesome atlas ever, and became a poor time trave......more

While I feel like I should like John the most (for obvious reasons), Jack still remains my favourite character. Probably because he has undergone the most character development and has any distinctive characteristics. Generally most of the lot gathered in these books have the same reactions to every......more

Goodreads review by Mratin on July 31, 2015

The dialogues hurt, but there's a lot going on. A lot of the characters who were enjoyable in the previous books, got really annoying and somewhat dumb in this one, and I think the author is aware of that because of some of the comments in the book, which is really weird, like why would you like to h......more
