Grampy's Time House

YA Novel · Sci-Fi Adventure · Series Potential

A mischievous YA time-travel adventure with the found-family heart of A Series of Unfortunate Events, the oddball danger of Doctor Who, and the magical-house wonder of Howl's Moving Castle.

A lonely orphan searching for family finds his long-lost grandfather alive inside a house that jumps through time, then must survive the old man's reckless mistakes while a monstrous enemy hunts them across history.

Benjamin Stump finally finds the family he has spent his life searching for — only to discover his grandfather is a selfish, short-tempered hermit living in a house that lurches through time. As Ben is pulled into Grampy's chaotic world of botched jumps, broken history, and enemies who know far too much about him, he must decide whether family is something you inherit, something you survive, or something you build.
