Product Description

From School Library Journal

Grade 5-8-This substantial third book in the quartet may not be great literature, but it does have a fast pace, suspenseful plotting, and cliff-hanger chapter endings that will make it popular. Readers who love video games, James Bond, Harry Potter, and Artemis Fowl will clamor for it. Bobby Pendragon and his friend Spader time travel by means of magical "flumes" to different parallel territories attempting to save them from Saint Dane, an evil shape-shifter who's determined to control the universe. In this installment, they go to Manhattan on the eve of World War II and find work in a fancy hotel full of celebrities and gangsters fighting turf wars. They must figure out what hand Saint Dane will play in world events of 1937 and whether they'll be able to stop him. This necessitates a trip 3000 years into the future. Along the way, they learn painful lessons about their role as saviors of the universe. Readers won't mind the lack of character development as they're drawn into the nonstop action, snappy dialogue, pop-culture references, and lots of historical trivia. It's advisable to read the books in order because, although each one has a stand-alone plot, frequent references are made to previous events.

Product Description

The third installment in an epic series of adventures

First Earth

Fourteen-year-old Bobby Pendragon is a loyal friend, sports star, devoted pet owner -- and Traveler. Along with his uncle Press, Bobby has visited the alternate dimension of Denduron and participated in a civil war. He's also waded through the endangered underwater territory of Cloral. Now Bobby once again finds himself thrust beyond the boundaries of time and space into a place that seems somewhat familiar: First Earth.

Bobby and the Traveler from Cloral -- Spader -- have flumed to New York City, 1937. Against a backdrop of gangsters, swing music, and the distant sound of a brewing war, the two must uncover the evil Saint Dane's newest plot. But is Bobby ready for the difficult choices ahead?

5.0 out of 5 stars inspiring book, April 16 2004
By Lila (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Never War (Paperback)
The pendragon series is such an inspiring book with so much suspense, action, and a touch of romance. MacHale makes you think with these books that he writes. "The Never War" is one of the best books in the series because it shows the past of our world and a supposedly given future. Bobby tries to save the territories and earth is one of them. Earth is seperated into three seperate sections though. Our past, present, and future. MacHale writes in a point of a teenager which makes preteens enjoy the book more. Even though there isn't a great word choice,I love the series entirely and I rate "The Never War" a 5!

5.0 out of 5 stars D.J. MacHale in the M!X!!, Mar 27 2004
By Erik (South Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Never War (Paperback)
Bobby Pendragon is a regular 14 year old, with some irregular adventures. After finding out he is a Traveller, Bobby and his Uncle Press set out to help territories during their turning points. Saint Dane, an evil Traveller seeking to destroy Halla, every time and every territory there ever was, is putting territories into chaos. After two suspenseful adventures on both Denduron and Cloral, Bobby must begin to accept his role as a savior. By sending journals to his friends about his experiences, Bobby, and Spader go through the worst imaginable in 1937, New York City. In between mob gangster conflicts, and a trip to the future, Bobby experiences both shock and tragedy. He is pushed to limits in this incredible book, and unfortunately many characters have bad endings. Pendragon, Gunny, and Spader are tangled in chaos. What is Saint Dane's next plot? Can Bobby see the future, change the past, and prevent World War II from happening? It is up to Bobby to happens to the present, past, and future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pendragon book 3- The Never War, Mar 26 2004
By Alagappan, Arun (Cerritos, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Never War (Paperback)
THE NEVER WAR
By- D.J MacHale
This the third book of the Pendragon series. After Bobby's adventure from Cloral, his traveler friend Spader and him flume to the territory of FIRST EARTH. There they find out that Saint Daine was trying to save the Hindenberg through them. And if that were to happen Bobby and his friends found out that the Nazi's would develope an atomic bomb first and destroy America and London.
I think that this book "especially" in the Pendragon series stood out more with adventure than any other. This book really kept you reading ahead. I was really ready to fall of my seat while reading this book. In the book you keep thinking that you know who Saint Daine really is. But you really don'y. He is disguised as the most unsuspected character in the book. I also love the way the author made Saint Daine play his big role in the book.
The only small, possible reason I could of disliked the relates to the fact that Bobby lost Spader and his Dear uncle Tilton, Press.
My favorite part of the book is when Saint Daine shows himself in the office of Max Rose. He explained his plan and everything. He even showed the dead body of Ludwig Zell and how he transformed and took his role. He also showed that he was the singer, Harlow. My least favorite part of the book was when Bobby had to send Spader to his home territoty of Cloral, because he wasn't ready yet. But they were certain they would meet again.
