About Island Of Time
Product Description Island of Time by R. A. Montgomery takes YOU on an adventure back in time with your friend Jayme. 9-12 year old readers will brave rough waters while boating on Lake Champlain, travel back in time and accept a job on board the steamer Ticonderoga, inspect a spooky cave and old burial grounds, and expose an international embezzlement operation. Choose Your Own Adventure Island of Time is an interactive adventure book in which YOU decide what happens next. A spur-of-the-moment trip to Providence Island turns into a voyage back in time. Do you turn back your boat when a dangerous storm starts brewing, or try to make it to harbor? Do you follow a mysterious ethereal voice you hear in the forest? What if you get stuck in a weird time loop? And what is your parents' accountant doing in the family lake house? For readers who enjoyed other titles from the Choose Your Own Adventure series, including: Struggle Down Under by Shannon Gilligan, Secret of the Ninja by Jay Leibold, and Silver Wings by R. A. Montgomery. Review Choose Your Own Adventure titles have sold at least 250 million copies around the world since the series debuted with Bantam Books in 1979, and anyone who remembers reading them probably knows why. You were the protagonist. When you're 9 years old, that's a pretty exhilarating feeling. Your fate depended on the choices you made at the bottom of each page. Each installment had dozens of endings, and the more rabid fans (including yours truly) wanted to experience every one. --The Associated Press About the Author R. A. MONTGOMERY attended Hopkins Grammar School, Williston-Northampton School and Williams College where he graduated in 1958. He pursued graduate studies in Religion and Economics at Yale and NYU. Montgomery was an adventurer all his life, climbing mountains in the Himalaya, skiing throughout Europe and scuba-diving wherever he could. His interests included education, macro-economics, geo-politics, mythology, history, mystery novels and music. He wrote his first interactive book, Journey Under the Sea, in 1976 and published it under the series name The Adventures of You. A few years later Bantam Books bought this book and gave Montgomery a contract for five more, to inaugurate their new childrens publishing division. Bantam renamed the series Choose Your Own Adventure and a publishing phenomenon was born. The series has sold more than 260 million copies in over 40 languages. He was married to the writer Shannon Gilligan. Montgomery died in November 2014, only two months after his last book was published.
