A teenage boy with a mysterious past. A lost prophecy. An ancient relic of divine power. A hidden war between Earth and Hell. Fourteen-year-old Zak Fisher has always known he's different. He's an orphan, he's never been ill, and he's stronger and faster than anyone else his age. When he's attacked by Nightwraiths, he's rescued by a Templar Knight and discovers the truth: Hell exists in a parallel world, and he's destined to play a vital role in an ancient war between the Templars and the Hell King, Morloch. Taken to Avernon Monastery in Cornwall, Zak meets Dunk, Leah, and Sarah - three teenagers who are also orphans, share his birthday, and his extraordinary abilities. Together, they learn they're Angels, and will gain their full powers on their fifteenth birthday. However, the evil Lord Ballivan is searching for the Seal of Solomon, a legendary ring capable of opening a portal between Earth and Hell. If he acquires it, Morloch's forces will be unstoppable - that's unless Zak and the other Angels can find it first. Praise for Carl Ashmore's books: 'From every angle, it's an excellent work. This series couldn't ask for a more vibrant opening chapter.' KIRKUS REVIEWS (awarded the KIRKUS STAR *) 'I really enjoyed reading THE TIME HUNTERS. You start off the action with a bang, drawing the reader in right away. Your writing is strong, and in places has a classic feel....It has terrific potential.' HARPER COLLINS ***** Carl Ashmore has written an entertaining book that children will love. READERS FAVOURITE 'This is a wonderful adventure. It has the magic of Lewis Carroll and Kenneth Grahame, the inventiveness of Roald Dahl and the writing skill of Rudyard Kipling in my opinion. It is the natural successor to Harry Potter.
