Steven Hopkins is a time traveler from the year 2347. He was one of the twelve scientists who collaborated on the Tempus Project. The other scientists started messing around with historical timelines and facts, using medallions that contain powerful microchips called Domini Temporis, which means Masters of Time. The medallions allow people to time travel. The rogue scientists called themselves the Emperors of Time, changing history as they pleased. Unable to stop them alone, Hopkins’ hope lies in four teens – the geeky Tim Jennings, the popular Julie Chapman, Billy Connell, the jock, and the quirky Rose Williams.
Emperors of Time by James Wilson Penn easily reminds me of Dr Who. The premise of the story, where a group of teens is trying to undo changes made by the Emperors of Time and correct history timelines, is very appealing as I’m always fascinated with the theory of time travel. Another interesting trait of this book is that it effortlessly made me test my knowledge of historical facts. It definitely encourages and provides a kind of intellectual quest for one’s mind. It also offers some thought-provoking notions. What if Lincoln was never assassinated? What if you could change a certain event in your past? Penn did a good job in explaining and incorporating this theory. Penn has made history fun to learn and the satisfying ending definitely hints a sequel.
