Ned Banks is miserable at his new school, until two kids from the future tumble into his life and ask Ned to join them as they protect the planet from dangers that might arrive from the future.
Ned Banks must travel deep into space to help the Time Surfers check out an abandoned space station, where a villain is waiting for them, and must find a way to bring a comic book hero to life if they want to escape.
Owen, Dana, Jon, and Sydney have to prevent Loki from finding the powerful Crystal Rune. That means they need to find it first, no matter what. But tracking down the rune is only the beginning.
The Time Surfers are in a race against Zoa, a slimy dronth, to be the first to find the photon crystal, which allows those that possess it the power to change the present, future, and even the past.
