About the Geronimo Stilton: The Journey Through Time series
The Journey Through Time sends Geronimo on repeated trips through history via a time machine built by his eccentric scientist friend Professor Paws von Volt, visiting prehistoric jungles, ancient Egypt, the age of dinosaurs, and other pivotal historical moments across its eight oversized volumes. Unlike the quick, disposable chapter-book format of most Geronimo Stilton spin-offs, this line is presented as large, lavishly illustrated hardcovers packed with real historical and scientific facts alongside the usual comic peril, positioning it as much an educational reference book as an adventure story.
Each entry drops Geronimo into a different era with a specific mission -- retrieve an artifact, right some historical wrong, escape a temporal disaster -- while the book's margins and back matter fill in genuine facts about the period visited, from ancient civilizations to the age of knights. The tone stays true to Geronimo's usual anxious, reluctant-hero comedy, but the format and educational framing set it apart from the character's more conventional mystery-adventure lines.
Running eight volumes released sporadically between 2002 and 2021 -- with real gaps of a decade or more between entries -- The Journey Through Time is one of the longest-spanning and most format-distinct corners of the Geronimo Stilton catalogue.
