I enjoyed this one. Time travel, the war and kids getting in and out of trouble! Touched on systemic misogyny and racism though a child’s viewpoint.

No matter how you mess with time you next really change the future, you can't stop whats coming, just alter how you get to it. And end up in a different timeline. Enjoyed this one, very back to the future.

Entretenido pero sin mucha chicha. Más infantil de lo que me esperaba y con una resolución final pilladita por los pelos.

The third and final book in the Johnny Maxwell trilogy, in which Terry Pratchett explores the other leg of the trousers of time.
You know, the trousers of time? Where each decision is a fork?
Here, Johnny Maxwell and his friends find themselves travelling back from the 'present day' of 1996 to 1941, and attempt to stop - or at least, change for the better - the Blackbury Blitz and the loss of life it entailed. But change the past, and you change the future (the now 'present') ...

Not as good as the 2nd book, but very good, seems like a 90's film that was never filmed.
bits of it are very Discworld...

My dad gifted this to me when I was young and it started me on a life long happy trek with Mr. Pratchett. I enjoyed each of them as a child and as an adult and have passed them on to my own kids with glee. As a kid there weren't a lot of books that I could read which gave insight into human nature and such. They're fun and maybe a little light for adults but no budding sci-fi fan should miss out on this series.

This one is pretty odd and difficult to follow at times. Time travel is like that I suppose. It is a fun story

Better than the first one and not as good as the second one. Johnny and his friends do some time traveling and help save the day. Clever theories and interesting characters as always.
