Review
The Time Cavern is a book that everyone will enjoy immensely both young and old. This story is a concise, well-written, and endearing story of mystery and charm. It is mature and clever, yet not overly complex. Todd Fonseca writes about exploration and friendship, as Aaron and Jake investigate the source of mysterious voices on the wind, and become entangled in the associated legend of an Amish boy who disappeared one hundred years ago. The story takes place in the quiet farmlands of Amish country, and Aaron learns about the Amish as he plays junior detective. The two friends' adventures are challenged by everything from the rural expansiveness of the country to various riddles involving chemistry, astronomy, mechanics, and history.
This was indeed a fun book to read, and I thoroughly enjoyed the believable characters and the well-done descriptions of the setting.
