The Tunguska Asteroid

The Kairos Makers, Book 3

De: C.A. Gray

Narrado por: Jason Gerber

It’s been a year since Gabe, Marty, and Elizabeth’s last adventure, and Gabe is starting to wonder if Thrylos will ever summon them again. But then, the magician himself shows up at the Lovejoys’ door one day, frantically summoning them in person to their biggest assignment yet. Not only will he be going along this time, but they will also need the help of other magicians and apprentices, too. Their assignment: to stop an asteroid bound for 1908 London, the largest city on Earth at the time.

The kids meet magicians and apprentices from all across time and space, teaming up with a trio from just 10 years in their future. Gabe develops a crush on Eva, who teaches him more about their rival, the evil magician, whom Gabe learns is named Kakovoulos.

Elizabeth makes fast friends with Eva’s younger sister Hope. Marty and the girls’ neighbor Joey become rivals, each helping the team at large figure out how to stop an asteroid with just the technology available in 1908, plus a few things they can easily steal from various different points in history.

It’s a race both through time and against time, taking the kids to medieval Scotland, to the forests of Russia, and, of course, into outer space as they attempt to save the world from the most devastating asteroid event in recorded history! But will they manage to divert the asteroid away from its course toward Earth? Or, will it still enter earth’s atmosphere, causing untold devastation?

Fun Mix of Sci-fi & Historical Fiction

My 11 year old listened to this one and he really liked it a lot! He's listened to all of this series and said that are better together but could be listened to on their own. These all are short at only around 1 1/2 hours long each book. This book was fun and a bit different because there was an extra sci-fi side to it with the history- a bit of an Armageddon take on a really event in 1908. I would say definitely geared towards that elementary age group but also good clean fun for all. The narrator does a great job with the different characters and is fun to listen to.
