As promised, here's the second book in the Caretaker trilogy. Man, I can't
wait for the third. It was two years between the first and second. Hopefully
the third will be quicker to release.
Here's the book jacket info. Enjoy.

In Firestorm, the first book of the Caretaker Trilogy, seventeen-year-old Jack
Danielson saved the world's oceans, but at great personal cost-his parents were
killed and everything he knew and believed was turned upside down.
Now Jack has come home to see P.J., his girlfriend and sole remaining
touchstone. But she's missing, and blame falls on Jack. On the run with Gisco,
his crafty canine sidekick, Jack is literally caught up in a whirlwind as he
travels to the heart of darkness to rescue P.J.-a journey that will bring him
face-to-face with the father of his old nemesis, the Dark Lord from the future,
as well as a beautiful and mysterious ally.
Jack's quest becomes all the more complicated as he discovers that the only
person who can stop the Dark Lord is another time traveler, one who has become
lost in the present. Searching him out, Jack encounters almost unendurable
horrors, learns to appreciate the savage beauty of the rain forest, and is
forced to confront shocking truths about himself and the people he loves.
David Klass mixes heart-racing adventure with an urgent ecological warning
about the fragility of the world's rain forests and the importance of respect
for indigenous peoples.
