Since he can never go back...history has moved on without him and now he has to make his way in the present.

The characters are pretty black and white and their emotions seem relatively uncontemplative and unreflective. The plot centers around a relative of Charlie's who accidentally uses the time twister of
Charlie's adventure actually begins several decades ago, when his great-grandfather James' older brother Henry disappears from Bloor's Academy. Henry reappears at Bloor's when the temperature reaches the same low, as this is now winter term. Charlie finds him, and there is a good bit of hiding Henry. But the Bloor's find Henry and imprison him. Tancred and Lysander have a falling-out, which is resolved after Tancred's encounter with a tree. The Flames (three cats) and Mr. Onimous help rescue
