When Edward mistakes a Time Fetch for a rock, the sleeping foragers inside wake up, and the powerful fruit fly–like entities begin gobbling time. In the now-collapsing world, Edward and an assortment of unlikely friends must return the Fetch to the Keeper to recall the foragers and save the universe. Solid characterization and fantastical invention carry readers along the whimsical plot arc.
