Stranded in the past, the tenacious young Pathfinders—Kyle, Vic, Beth, Harry, and Nate—forge ahead in their final adventure for the fabled Windrose treasure.

Picking right up after The Curse of the Crystal Cavern’s (2021) thrilling face-off with the Creeper, the diverse team of intrepid explorers travels back in time and ends up at Camp Pathfinder in the year 1962. The kids meet a young Mildred Merriweather, great-niece of eccentric founder Henry Merriweather, whose disastrous legacy occasionally draws ridicule from fellow campers. Together the Pathfinders uncover a hidden map that charts a path along a raging river toward a mysterious place called the Ringing Rocks. Led by a cantankerous former camper named Gideon, the young explorers successfully conquer the deadly Rockledge River only to end up at a mysterious ship called the Lost Boy. Unbeknownst to the Pathfinders, an unexpected host awaits on the Lost Boy alongside a discovery that disrupts the very fabric of time. With a grand dose of adventurous humor, Book 3 in the series concludes with a flourish. Though a tad more muted in scope than its predecessors, this latest installment nonetheless retains the same sense of magical weirdness and affection for historical know-how. The artwork also again remains a clear highlight, conveying an adventurous spirit that springs off the page.

Followers of the series will be delighted to see it come to a satisfying close. (Graphic novel. 8-12)
