Day of the Predator by Alex Scarrow

4.0

A great sequel to the first TimeRiders book.

The characters are still fantastic. Liam and Maddy developed really well, with Liam stuck in dinosaur times and Maddy having to keep so many secrets. Sal also had moments of brilliance. Becks was a wonderful new character.

Plot: A message from the future tells the team of a contamination event due to Edward Chan, the grandfather of time travel, was killed before he could write a paper on time travel in 2029. Liam and Becks are sent to investigate, but Maddy accidently maroons them and sixteen other kids in the Cretaceous era. They send a message to the field office, but are being hunted down by an unknown species of dinosaur.

I thought this book was fantastic. I am confused at how time travel works in the books, but it doesn't bother me a lot.
