"I love anything to do with time travel so when I won a copy of this book from thiskidreviewsbooks, I was very excited. Like Dak Smyth, one of the main characters in the book, I enjoy history. But unlike Sera, his best friend, I'm not very interested in science. So sometimes the scientific details bored me. But for any kid that loves science and/or history this is a great book. There is plenty of action and interesting characters, like "Eyeball". I felt the friendship between Dak and Sera was well portrayed and the interaction between all three main characters was great. Sometimes I felt the subject matter too adult but the interaction brought it back to a kid's level. This is the first of seven books in the Infinity Ring series and it will be interesting to see where Dak, Sera and Rig will end up in each book, as they try to save the world by correcting history."

" I had heard good things about this one, but I wasn't too impressed. Not bad, but not particularly enjoyable. Fans of the 39 clues might enjoy it, but I really prefer that series to this one. "
— Nicole, 2/20/2014 -
" Okay. Good for younger readers. "
— Sarah, 2/13/2014 -
" a good start to a new series "
— Sean, 2/11/2014 -
" Fun new series. I liked trying to guess what the break would be and how they would find a way out of their troubles. "
— Marci, 1/26/2014 -
" Good action with a historical twist. It is the very far future and significant changes have been made to world history. This group of kids must travel through time correcting things. Still another series and this one is geared toward history fans. Totally clean read - Nancy "

" It was an amazing book! But I didn't like the last sentence. Boo. Other then that YEH!!!!! "
— Nick, 1/20/2014 -
" Since I am such a fan of the 39 Clues series my opinion may be a bit skewed to the idea of the layout of this book. I think both book series are a great way to get younger readers more active. The idea that they are able to find clues and interact on the internet with the series is great. I think. "
— Tricia, 12/19/2013 -
" it was good but somtimes it tended to drag on and on and not get to the point but only sometimes over all it was good "
— Grace, 12/2/2013 -
" This time traveling story of two kids with attitudes was a bit disappointing. I thought Maze Runner was brilliant, but unfortunately none of Dashner's other books (including the sequels to MR) have impressed me. "
— Kiri, 10/13/2013 -
" The premise is fascinating...but if you think too hard about messing with time, it can give you a headache. However, the kids really enjoyed this story and it gave us alot to talk about - both seriously as well as jokingly. They can't wait for the next book on CD. "
— Liz, 9/4/2013 -
" I would have totally eaten this up as a fourth-grader, probably just as much as the 39 Clues. "
— Stacy, 8/23/2013 -
" EPIC! Great start for the series. "
— Xander, 6/19/2013 -
" I'm finding this a little confusing so far. "
— 1, 5/7/2013 -
" I tried to like this book. I gave up 2/3 the way into it. The writing was pathetic - like some guy who is trying a little too hard to be cool and ends up being annoying and you just want them to go away. "
— Susan, 4/25/2013 -
" Magic Tree House meets 39 Clues. I didn't really get into this, which was disappointing because I loved James Dashner's Maze Runner series. I'm not familiar with the author of Book 2 in this series. "
— Julie, 12/17/2012 -
" Dak and Sera discover the Infinity Ring, a key to time travel which Dak's parents having been developing. Using the Infinity Ring they travel back to the days of Christopher Columbus and the mutiny aboard his ship the Santa Maria. Reviewer 21 "

" I was shocked when I saw how tiny this book is but it is worth the money I spent on it. Now I'm going to play the game :D "
