A "spooky[,] spine-tingling" time travel adventure that takes a boy
and his eccentric professor friend to the mysterious Byzantine
Empire (Publishers Weekly) . . . [Description] Johnny Dixon is
worried about Professor Childermass. The professor has always been
an odd duck, but lately his behavior has been positively bizarre.
He's been talking to himself and stalking down the street with his
collar turned up and his hat over his eyes, and now he won't return
Johnny's calls. Johnny's afraid that the professor's old age is
starting to get to him, but he will soon find it's something far
more amazing-and far more dangerous. The professor has discovered a
trolley that can carry them five hundred years back in time, to the
last days of the Byzantine Empire. In the dark and winding streets
of Constantinople, he and Johnny confront crusaders, mystics, and
thieves as they attempt to save the ancient empire from destruction
at the hands of the advancing Turkish armies. Created by the
award-winning author of The House with a Clock in Its Walls, Johnny
Dixon is one of the most charming young heroes in literature-a
spunky, bespectacled young man whose curiosity often gets him into
trouble-and his "wonderfully warming friendship with cantankerous
old Professor Childermass makes them an endearing detective team"
(The New York Times).
