Invictus
Autor Ryan Graudinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 sep 2017
Farway McCarthy is a time traveller. With nowhere to call home and nothing to anchor him to the present, Far captains a crew on a dangerous mission into the past.
When he collides with Eliot - a mysterious, secretive girl, whose very appearance raises questions about time itself - Far immediately distrusts her.
But he must take a leap of faith, following Eliot on a race against time, if he's to protect everything he's ever loved from disappearing forever...
A fast-paced, heart-stopping journey that will leave you breathless.

* "Invictusis a creative, mesmerizing adventure... From start to finish, it will captivate readers with unique characters, intriguing concepts, and an adorable red panda. It would be a great disservice to this generation of action-packed cinema to dismiss this novel without attempting to bring it to the big screen...Invictusis a ride that no young adult reader should miss."—VOYATeen Reviewer (starred review)
