"W.A.R.P. : The Reluctant Assassin" is the first book in the latest series by Eion Colfer. W.A.R.P. is a top secret scheme, devised by the FBI, whereby they protect witnesses for upcoming legal trials by hiding them, not in a particular location, but in a different time. A time machine transports people back into the past for safekeeping, to be brought back into the present when required. Not surprisingly things go horribly wrong!
Chevie is a teenage FBI agent who joins up with Riley, an orphan who has accidentally arrived from the time of Victorian London. Chevie and Riley time travel between current day and Victorian London, while being hunted by the evil assassin Albert Garrick.
This is an entertaining and fast paced read that will appeal to fans of action/adventure stories with a bit of sci fi and humour added to the mix.
