The Strange Box: The children have grown up. They buy an old box but a strange man tries to take it off them. Mr Mortlock, the school caretaker, zaps the strange man and they all run through a doorway that appears on the horizon. Beyond the Door: The children are on the other side of the doorway, in the Time Vault. When Mr Mortlock comes through he transforms into Mortlock, the Time Guardian. He explains their new mission – to fight the Virans, whose aim is to destroy history as we know it. The Jewel in the Hub: Wilf goes back to Renaissance Italy and meets the young Leonardo Da Vinci. The boys discover the Hub (a part of the TimeWeb), but so do the Virans! The Matrix Mission: Neena goes back to medieval Germany and meets the young Johann Gutenberg. They have to find and retrieve the Matrix (the keyboard element of the TimeWeb). The Power of the Cell: Nadim, Kipper and Wilma go back in time to find the Cell (the ‘battery’ of the TimeWeb machine). They meet the young Michael Faraday and a new character, Tyler. The TimeWeb: The children and Mortlock put all the pieces of the TimeWeb together, but it doesn’t work! They need the magic key.

I enjoyed it.
The best thing is when the tiny specks of the bright light began to flow
I recommend this book because it encourages us not to complain about the world as it is today. It's also enjoyable because it captures the spirit of a boy living in the 1800s.
really good
This book is fiction and I will recommend it to someone else because this book tells you why the morklocks is here
Another good story, more historical events.

Very nice story
It’s a very nice book!
I like it because it was fun. I would recommend this book to children who like reading Biff, Chip and Kipper books.
I read this to myself and to my mum, I’m enjoying the series
It is a good book because it was about all the previous adventures when they were young.
However, the content are too long.
I will still recommend it to someone else.
I'm not sure if Mortlock is a Viran or not, because most Virans do look like people.
I liked it because it was exciting. My favourite character is probably Floppy the dog.
I’d recommend it to people who like history and adventure. I want to read the whole series
I would have liked more Biff and Chip in the book but this book was quite fun to read. My favourite character was Nadim because he kept on gulping.
Time travelling fun with biff, chip and kipper.
I thought it was interesting because it kept me waiting for the next book
This is a fiction book. I like Neena because she is curious. This is an exciting book and I recommend it to everyone!
it was a short exciting story in a series of 18 books. it is about the time runners who get introduced to the time web and virans.
Found this a bit difficult to read as I struggle with lots of words on a page
This book was ok. I felt more like a book to set up a story for a future adventure. My favorite character was Floppy the dog. I liked that everything was made of leather. i would only recommend this book if you are reading this series in order.
Fiction - it was really interesting and discovered more about Mortlock being a time guardian
I liked this book because some of the children went on the adventure and some didnt. Also a man who wasnt human wanted the chest.
great its exciting i think others would love this book too. the story makes you think about what might happen next i would recommend it
I thought this was an adventure type book and it was fictional so I loved the character Chip. I recommend this book to people aged 6 to 8
I have read this book several times. My favourite character is Mortlock. I would recommend this book to people who like history and adventure stories.
I love it! Biff and chip get taught about the virons and history.
this was a exciting book
I look at this story and I like reading it and I might pick it again this book because it was a nice story.
I enjoyed the story.
