Our view
“The Never War” takes the “Pendragon” series to First Earth, our own world in 1937, and works a real historical event into the adventure. Bobby Pendragon is again in pursuit of Saint Dane. Gunny is a character some readers grow fond of. How the series’ several Earths relate, and whether time runs alike on each, leaves some confused.
