YACaretaker Trilogy series.
In this final installment of the trilogy, time-traveling Jack saves the future from global warming--and magical mutants--once again; maybe this time it will stick. Plentiful action and amped-up teen angst keep the pages turning, but the fantasy elements and holes in the time-travel logic undermine Klass's own (vociferously stated) message about the dangers of climate change.
