Interview with Gage Copeland, Author of The Time Rider

Copeland's book is Young Adult Science Fiction. It's a fun read for that age group. He recommends it to be around PG-13 because of coarse language.
The book features Charlotte Rowe and Ryder, a mysterious time traveler. Together, they must fight to save our universe from the Revenant. Creatures who are from a parallel universe that try to steal the lives of those people who live here in ours.

I found my conversation with Gage to be interesting. We talked more off-mic that I wish I had recorded and not left out. He’s a man of faith and has incorporated the themes of faith in his book. The first five chapters I read were fantastic, with good character development and voices.

For a first-time author, Gage has a great sense of pacing and development, and with your support, I believe he will grow into the type of author the Ozarks will be proud of calling one of their own.

From the Amazon page:

“Charlotte Rowes is a girl with burning questions. Questions about the world she lives in…what truly lies in the dark.When she is five years old, she lives through an experience she will never forget. Something comes looking to take her away. Something not of this world. If it weren’t for the mysterious boy who rescues her, something terrible would have happened.Charlotte grows older leaving the events of that incident behind, likening them to a wild dream. But all that changes when she is thrown headfirst into a world full of danger and wonder. She finds him again, the boy who saved her life…an odd teenager by the name of Ryder. However, others call him another name, The Time Rider.Ryder and his older colleague work as a team to fight the creatures that tried to harm Charlotte all those years ago. The two are private military contractors commissioned by the Oracle Corporation. When Charlotte comes into their lives it starts a series of events which lead them to a sinister plan. This plan will turn their shadow war into something that threatens the lives of everyone on the planet.The corporation plans on awakening something that lives beyond the void. Something that wants to consume everything. The Time Rider may be the only person who can stop it. But can he do it alone? Will he succeed before it’s too late? Or will all be lost?”
