Grade 8 Up—Back in New York after a year of breathtakingly dangerous adventures in which he saved the Earth's oceans in Firestorm (2006) and the Amazon in Whirlwind (2008, both Farrar), Jack Danielson hopes to blend in with the crowds in Manhattan, where he has taken a job as a construction worker and resumed his relationship with his girlfriend P.J., now a student at Barnard. Unfortunately, his destiny as Prince of Dann a thousand years in the future makes life as an ordinary 21st-century teenager impossible. He soon finds himself kidnapped and whirled away into a future where much of the Earth is desert and the Arctic has been almost completely destroyed. In this world, Jack's real father, the king, is about to be executed by the forces of the Dark Army, and his real mother is waiting to join Jack on a death-defying quest to free his father from a seemingly impenetrable fortress, defeat the Dark Lord, and save the dying planet. Every bit as fast paced, thrilling, and similar to a gripping computer game as its predecessors, this final volume in the trilogy will keep readers absorbed while presenting them with a valuable warning about the need for environmental awareness.—Ginny Gustin, Sonoma County Library System, Santa Rosa, CA
