Book 1
Time Travel to the Age of First Fires
Brush the dirt off a broken pot, and you can walk into the day it was made.
Elias Hourigan always jumps first and thinks on the way down. When he rushes a dig on Tower Hill, he loses a priceless find and crashes into a buried room, where a gate of black stone waits in the dark, ringed with eight gold clocks. Now the town wants to fill in the hill forever, and the vote is in two days. With careful Anjali, clock-keeping Pilar, and Cog the thieving fox, Elias sets an ancient pottery sherd in the gate's one empty frame.
