5.0 out of 5 stars This "Time" was the best so far., July 12, 2002

This review is from: Prisoner of Time (Mass Market Paperback)

"A Prisoner of Time" was much-much better than "For All Time" and surpassed "Both Sides Of Time," as well. This book had none stop action and was interesting. Todd could have been better developed, but that is my only complaint. I think Hiram Stratton, Sr., was shown to be a heartless human being better in this book than in the other two "Time" novels combined. I hope in the last book in this quad series, it will show why both Annie AND Todd were able to time travel - is it hereditary or just pure luck? I guess only *time* will tell...... I recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's A Time Trap!, January 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Prisoner of Time (Mass Market Paperback)

Prisoner Of Time is the third book in a trilogy that includes Both Sides of Time and Out of Time. However, in this book, it follows the lives of Tod Lockwood and Devonny Stratton, instead of the characters in the first book, Annie Lockwood and Strat. When Tod is up at Stratton Point refueling on its natural spring water, he is unwillingly taken by time. Once Tod realizes what has happened, he is in the year 1899. Time has dragged him here to rescue the wealthy Stratton girl. I really liked this book a lot but I was slightly disappointed in the fact that it wasn't about Annie and Strat, because I'm anxious to see what happened to them. I also hope that Caroline B. Cooney comes out with an addition to this trilogy soon! This book is great if you like Science Fiction/ Time Traveling stories with a great plotline!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great addition to the "time" series, September 24, 2000

A Prisoner of Time was another great book in the "time" series by Cooney, and in my opinion, the best!

Devonny Stratton is disgusted when she finds that her wealthy, 1890's father is forcing her to marry the English Lord Windon. She's only sixteen, and she has already made plans for her life! And modern Todd Lockwood has never wanted to get involved with a girl, much less one from the last century. However, when Devonny needs help, it seems as if Todd is the answer to her prayers...

I loved this book, and I think it's a great addition to the series! However, I think that another book or two is needed, about Annie and Strat... and maybe Flossie and Gianni? :)

This was a great book on time travel, romance, and adventure, and I'd recommend it for ages 12 and up. Be sure to read the others in the series, too - Both Sides of Time and Out of Time.
