The Time-Thief (Leap Cycle #2)

by Patience Agbabi (Author)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Series: Leap Cycle

Elle is back! This time she's leaping almost three whole centuries back in time, to catch a thief, help her friend and save our future

It's midsummer's day and thirteen-year-old Elle and her Leapling classmates are visiting the Museum of the Past, the Present and the Future. But on the day of the school trip, disaster strikes, and the most unique and valuable piece in the museum, the Infinity-Glass, is stolen! And worse still, Elle's friend and fellow Infinite, MC², is arrested for the crime!

To prove his innocence Elle must leap back centuries in time, to a London very different from today. Along the way she will meet new friends, face dangers unlike any she has ever known, and face an old enemy who is determined to destroy her. Can Elle find the missing Infinity-Glass and return it to its rightful home before it's too late?

Review quotes

An ingenious, exhilarating adventure—SOPHIE ANDERSON, author of THE HOUSE WITH CHICKEN LEGS
Patience Agbabi
Patience Agbabi was born in London in 1965 to Nigerian parents, spent her teenage years living in North Wales and now lives in Kent with her husband and children. She has been writing poetry for over twenty years, and her first novel for children, The Infinite, the first in the Leap Cycle series, was published in 2020. Like Elle, she loves sprinting, numbers and pepper soup, but, disappointingly, her leaping is less spectacular.
