For years, many of you have been asking me if I would ever start a new series.
Well, I’m starting one!
Here’s the cover for it:
And here’s the concept:
Johnny Day is not a good history student. He got a D-minus on his last exam. He can’t even decipher Roman numerals. So when Johnny visits his brilliant aunt at the groundbreaking company where she works, he never expects her to send him back to ancient Rome.
Someone has gone back in time for nefarious reasons — and now, the kid who doesn’t know anything about history is the only one who can save it.
Armed with nothing but his wits and a snarky, sentient computer, Johnny must dodge gladiators, conspiracies and catastrophes as he races to stop a cunning villain before the entire timeline collapses — and our present is wiped out for good.
The book will be available everywhere on March 2, 2027.

Let’s go! I have high hopes after The Last Musketeer!

Hey, Mr Gibbs!
Because we’re looking at history and time travel here, I’ve got a question for you… With all the amazing civilisations, empires, and kingdoms in history, which one is your absolute favourite?
This book sounds so good I can’t wait to read it. Its amazing that you manage to write so many incredible books every single year, how do you do it?
I did notice that the cover for this book is different from your usual style. I recall you asked to change the original covers of The Last Musketeer and so I was surprised that this cover looks more similar to those of the OG Last Musketeer rather than all of your other cover designs (which are brilliant btw). Is the new cover style an intentional choice or was it not up to you?
P.S. – Can’t wait for the TV show, it made my day to find out it was being made!

There are way too many great time periods to pick just one.

The new cover was a publisher decision. Not mine. But I like it.
