Comment
Add a CommentGreat book, very entertaining read.
All the action and excitement of a 1960s sci-fi short story … in 200 pages. It’s hard to judge a children’s novel too harshly for adult enjoyment, but this series continues to ride the line of being just not quite boring enough to give up on. It feels exactly like I’m reading a boys’ adventure novel from the 60s, nothing more, nothing less.
My 5th Grader liked this book and requested I get others in the series.
