Toby Jones and the Timeless Cricket Match, Michael Panckridge , Brett Lee , single work children's fiction children's

'It’s not just a game – it’s time travel – and this time it’s back to Lords.

'Toby Jones returns in another exciting story of time travel and cricket. Toby Jones is not your average cricket fan. It’s not his passion for the game that makes him unusual – it’s his ability to travel through time, back to the great matches of the past.

'Just when Toby thought his time-travel adventures were all over, he has to make another journey, and this time it’s going to be dangerous. With the help of his mentor and fellow time traveller Jim Oldfield, Toby must travel to the famous cricket ground Lords in England to visit Father Time so he can save his friend Ally. Ally is fading away since she met herself on a previous trip back through time.

'Now it is truly a race against time to save her.

'But where is the ruthless Phillip Smale? Will Phillip complicate the important task at hand?' (Author's abstract)

Toby Jones and the Clash with Father Time, Michael Panckridge , Brett Lee , single work children's fiction children's

'Toby Jones is not your average cricket fan. It isn’t his passion for the game that makes him unusual – it’s his ability to travel through time, back to the great matches of the past. Toby is playing for Australia in a junior Ashes match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. It’s the most important game of his life so far. But things take a dramatic turn when one of a band of sinister soul-snatchers – known as Grubbers – makes a ghostly appearance in the outfield and takes over the body of one of the England players. To make matters worse, Toby discovers that his friend Georgie has gone missing. Toby must return to the Timeless Cricket Match and confront the powerful and evil Father Time. Only by doing so can he save all the former and future Test cricketers doomed to be trapped in the past forever… and the game of cricket itself.

A thrilling conclusion to the bestselling Toby Jones series.' (Author's abstract)
