Nobody could be kinder than time travelling adventurer Charlie Green, and its both a strength and weakness as hediscovers in his latest adventure! After holidaying nearby to the ruins of Pompeii, Charlie learns that the volcanic eruption in79AD buried the city of Pompeii, and many of its residents perished as a result under metres of ash and pumice. Struck bythis, Charlie resolves to save a group of school children from a grisly death. Charlie decides to hatch a plan to use his magic aeroplane to return him to ancient Pompeii just before the eruption tolead the children to safety. However, what Charlie doesnt know is that the eruption, and subsequent devastation, wascreated by the all-powerful Greek God Zeus. Very unhappy with the population of Pompeii changing their Godlyallegiances to Roman Gods, he chose to make them pay the ultimate price. And anyone crossing paths with the ill-tempered God of Gods normally ends up on the sharp end of a lightning bolt as Charlie soon find out when he arrives inancient Pompeii and lands himself in more trouble than he could have imagined! With unseen adversaries appearing fromboth heaven and earth, and trouble brewing back in the modern-day Green household, Charlie will need all hisirrepressible charm, innocent guile and courage to be successful this time.
