A Swiftly Tilting Planet by Madeleine L'Engle, a book review

A Swiftly Tilting Planet by Madeleine L'Engle is the third book in the five part series which begins with A Wrinkle in Time. In this installment, Charles Wallace and Meg again team up to save the future of earth. Meg is strangely less present in some ways, but just as present and necessary in others.

I love that L'Engle has written these stories in such a way as to illustrate some otherwise confusing scientific theories and ideas. Time and space travel being the primary focus of all five of the books. I especially appreciate that time is extremely relative.

In this book, Charles Wallace visits a time very much like what his niece will experience in the final book in the series. And the way that it all ties together is really interesting.

My eldest daughter really enjoyed this story. My second daughter will read it in due time and I'm pretty sure she will enjoy it. My eldest and I highly recommend this one as well as the two before it.
