"Classic Lindsay Galvin: pacey, page-turny and pure magic!" Lucy Strange
"Engaging and dramatic; Eric Finch discovers a Time Engine in his attic designed by his ancestor, Ada Lovelace, and built by his equally gifted mother. A thrilling adventure ensues which leads to new beginnings." UKLA Teacher Judge 2025/2026
"The perfect combination of adventure, fantasy, history and emotion Lindsay Galvin's exceptional wordsmithing, keeping the pace and content but the language digestible For any fans of The Elixir, or lovers of fantasy and adventure, this is one to make sure you get ordered. And while you go off to do that, Im going to check my attic for any time machines" From Pen and Page, blogger
"As with every book that I've read by Lindsay Galvin this is pacey and immersive read. The Time Engine is a blend of science and fiction; a perfect mix when you also add in a historical figure Ada Lovelace an energetic and enjoyable read; there is a real depth to the characters and the plot is deeply engaging." NetGalley review
