Goodreads Synopsis:

Tory and her friends are celebrating the success of a second mission to aid WWII Britain when an urgent summons calls them back to their own time: Napoleon is on the brink of invading England. Can a handful of young mages stop an army? 


In desperation, Merlin’s Irregulars ask Rebecca Weiss, an untrained telepath from 1940, to come back to 1804 and change Napoleon’s mind before it’s too late. As Tory and Allarde make a commitment that will cost him his inheritance, Rebecca promises to do what she can to stop Napoleon even though she is unsure of her magical abilities. 

But Tory and her friends saved the Weiss family from Nazi imprisonment, and Rebecca will risk anything, even her life and her budding relationship with Nick Rainford, to repay them. A daring mission takes Tory
and Rebecca and their friends into the heart of the Army of Boulogne, where Napoleon is plotting invasion. 

But while their success may save England, they must still face the bittersweet consequences of their decisions when they return home.

  

My Review:

            Tory and her friends are celebrating the success of their second mission to save the French scientists who were captured by the Nazis. They are urgently called back after saving the scientists to their own time because Napoleon is on the brink of invading England. Can theses young magical kids save the entire world and re-write history?

            Desperate for anything, the gang enlists the help of Rebecca Weiss, an untrained telepath from 1940. She is to come back to 1804 and somehow change Napoleon's mind before too many innocent lives are taken. Will she be able to help the mages or will she fail and change the entire future of the world?

            Overall, it was an okay finish to this series. I did however, like the first two books more because it had more action and less history. This book consisted more of the history about the war and politics which I didn't find all that interesting. Plus a lot of the book was focused on the fighting between mages, which was cool, but I wanted more romantic scenes with Tory and Allared.
