The Travelers

Praise for The Travelers: “An orphan stumbles upon adventures and tragic revelations beyond his wildest imaginings…Howard’s plotting of the time travel element is solid and doesn’t get bogged down in mechanics, which helps the bittersweet moments land. Intriguingly, the book offers readers alternate conclusions—one definitive and another with a massive cliffhanger… A good balance between speculative what ifs and characters with emotional resonance.—Kirkus Reviews “In this twisty time-travel adventure, recently unearthed family secrets propel a grieving tween on a mission to change the past…Thoughtful character dynamics explore intergenerational grief and trauma as Ben attempts to rectify past wrongs, faces somber present-day realities, and comes to terms with his loss. It’s a quietly intimate story suggesting that healing can be found through sincere connection.”—Publisher’s Weekly Praise for The Travelers: “An orphan stumbles upon adventures and tragic revelations beyond his wildest imaginings…Howard’s plotting of the time travel element is solid and doesn’t get bogged down in mechanics, which helps the bittersweet moments land.
