A brilliant novel from
bestselling author Edward Bloor.
London Calling
EDWARD BLOOR
MARTIN CONWAY IS sleeping his life away, aimless and unhappy, until the
boy appears in his room. He is a long-dead English boy, and he has an urgent
question to ask. Martin, for his own sanity, hopes and prays it is just a dream.
But then one dream becomes two, then three, then four. And the dreams are
startlingly vivid. As Martin follows the boy through the Blitz-ravaged streets
of London in 1940, that city’s fiery dreamscape thrills and frightens him
more than any place in his own drab world. Struggling to reconcile his dream
world and the waking world, Martin slowly starts to believe—in the boy, in
time travel, in himself. And Martin’s life, which had once seemed so pointless,
takes on a great purpose that he could never have imagined.
“Bloor continues to demonstrate his range, this time mixing historical
fiction with time travel in a poignant adventure story about fathers and
sons. . . . Have tissues on hand for the final pages.”—Publishers Weekly
“Martin’s determination and the vivid scenes of London during the Blitz are
sure to appeal.”—Kliatt
