In Found, Sent‘s prequel, Jonah, Katherine, and Chip discover that time travel is real. This reader eagerly awaits the next installment in The Missing series. The 15th century comes to life with the novel attraction that it is seen, in all its dirty, smelly, violent glory, through the eyes of modern teens. With its compelling storyline and realistic teenage characters, Sent will keep readers on the edges of their seats while forcing them to think through the way history is written. Haddix is a master of the young adult novel, and Sent is another of her thoughtful thrillers. There is a small window of opportunity between when Jonah and Katherine can save them and when they will be killed.
To do this, Chip and Alex must take on their roles as the princes of England up until the time when nobody knows what happened to them. In Sent, Chip and Alex, with the help of Jonah and Katherine, must “fix” the history that the earlier time travelers corrupted. In Found, the first novel of the series, the princes were “rescued” by time travelers to be adopted by parents in the distant future. The little princes were locked in the Tower of London, and history does not know what became of them.
Two of the boys, Chip and Alex, discover that they are actually the famous “little princes,” Edward V of England and Richard, Duke of York. In this sequel to Found, four 21st-century teens find themselves transported to the 15th century. Review by Craig Felt age 13 Elizabeth Caulfield Felt
