When his uncle Press tells Bobby that there are people that
need their help, fourteen year old Bobby is hesitant. But he agrees to go with
Press, thinking that the help necessary is something simple. But what he finds
is much stranger. He's swept into another world, or "territory," as
Press calls it, in order to prevent their clans from destroying each other.
Press tells him that he is a traveler - someone with the ability to travel
between territories and a duty to make sure the situations in these territories
are stable. When his uncle is captured by one of the clans and a rogue
traveler, Bobby is on a mission to save Press and bring them back home.
I enjoyed reading this novel. The first time I read it was
in like elementary school, so it was fun to remember parts of the book as I
read through it. The book was still interesting to read, and although I felt as
if it was more geared toward younger readers, I still liked it. The story was
engaging and the territories were very descriptive as well. The characters were
likable and had decent character arcs, and overall, I would recommend this
novel to other readers. Just be warned, it is not as well-written as more
advanced books.
