Can Noah Zarc stop Earth from being destroyed... a second time?

“Pease’s strength as a storyteller lies in his ability to connect multiple time periods imaginatively, as well as Noah’s excited, fast-paced narration.” ~ Publishers Weekly

Noah Zarc has a life most kids only dream of – traveling through time on an immense spaceship, seeing the wonders of the solar system, and experiencing the vast history of Earth... before everything on the planet was destroyed. His family's mission is to repopulate Earth with life retrieved from the past. Of course, nothing ever goes as planned.

His mother and father vanish during an operation to Earth’s ancient past, and together with his brother, sister, and an orphaned girl from the Ice Age, Noah sets out on a quest through space and time to rescue his parents and bring them back to the 31st century.

Yet, as they soon discover, his parents' disappearance was no accident. The Zarc family is being systematically hunted by a dark foe who will stop at nothing to thwart the Zarc mission, even if that means destroying all life on Earth... again, including everything, and everyone, Noah holds dear.

EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the first book in the multiple award-winning "Noah Zarc" series of science fiction time travel adventures—an out-of-this-world, action-packed thrill ride. [DRM-Free]

Product description

About the Author

EDITOR: Lane Diamond has over 120 published books to his editing credit, including many multiple award-winners, across many genres and styles.

AUTHOR: My whole life, I've loved hearing and reading stories, and creating worlds of my own. As a child, I spent countless hours drawing crazy contraptions on paper, or building vast fortresses in a sand pile behind my garage. There was hardly a time I wasn't off on some adventure in my mind, to the dismay of parents and teachers alike. So it's no big surprise I took all that daydreaming, all that longing to really see the wonder of creation around me, and started pouring it into discovering hidden universes in my own mind. For quite a few years I tried my hand at writing, mostly working on one, massive fantasy novel, but it wasn't until I had kids and they became voracious readers that I found my passion. There's no greater audience than a child. I'd rather have a simple review from a kid that says, "Awesome book!" than a five-star review in the New York Times. Of course, if anyone at the Times wants to try to prove me wrong, I'd be willing to let you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great SciFi for the young.

Great SciFi for youngish readers - although I am at the opposite end of the age scale.
It was amusingly and interestingly written, though requiring some leaps of faith on my part, which the young won't need to do.
But I can definitely recommend it.

Noah Zarc and his family are on a mission. They are collecting 2 of every animal via time machine so that they aren’t extinct in the year 3024 (Noah’s home time-zone). When Noah’s mom and dad get stuck in time because someone stole their time-traveling spaceship, Noah and his older siblings go to rescue them. But, it turns out that by the time they got there (they arrived a week after the signal) that their mom was kidnapped (by the guy who stole their spaceship). And that’s not all – the evil guy plans to destroy their goal by wrecking the place they have set up for the animals via poisonous gas, so it would take years to remove it. What can Noah and his family do?

Mammoth Trouble is the first book in the Noah Zarc trilogy (Book 2 is Cataclysm and Book 3 is Declaration). This is a fabulous dystopian world! Mr. Pease makes it sound so real and believable. I wouldn’t be surprised if this actually happened in the future (hmm.. maybe Mr. Pease is the time traveler?). I like Noah’s name, it made me smile. Noah is a really cool boy. The fact that he is disabled (Noah is in a high-tech wheelchair) added to the story. It is great to see a very cool MC with a disability. The story is very fun and totally gets the reader involved. I think it would make a great read-aloud for parents to read to younger kids for story time. Older kids and grown-ups will enjoy Mr. Pease’s writing style. The book has no profanity and only mild violence. The sibling rivalry described between Noah and his brother and sister is very believable and pretty funny. I think Noah Zarc is a great series that kids would love. I am definitely finishing this series!

4.0 out of 5 stars Smart kids, spaceships, exotic animals, and time travel — what's not to like?
Reviewed in the United States on 4 December 2013

In Noah Zarc: Mammoth Trouble, Mr. Pease has set up an interesting and fun universe in which the Zarc family has been selected to help repopulate a future Earth with animals from the past. Not everyone thinks that Earth should be preserved for all species except humans, however. This is a terrific story with many environmental themes. If we destroy our home, do we have the right to reclaim it once it's recovered after a thousand years? Or should it belong to the species we helped to extinguish? Lots of action, adventure and humor are laced throughout the book and it's one I would have thoroughly enjoyed as a youngster, as well as appreciating it as a not-so-youngster now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel-good Time Traveling Read
Reviewed in the United States on 18 October 2013

I'll start off by saying that I didn't expect to like this book as much as I did! It's a middle-grade book that even adults will enjoy. The story is about a family from the future, time traveling to the past in order to save all of Earth's animals from extinction and to, once again, make Earth habitable for everyone. You can guess that this doesn't happen seamlessly and you would be right. Complete with heroes and a villain, the twists and turns just keep coming. Pease did an excellent job with descriptions of characters and their personalities. This is only the 1st book in the Noah Zarc series and I'm looking forward to reading the next.
