Review of Fireball Adventure

This book is very well written. The characters are well developed, though the children are pretty smart for their age. Very creative storyline, not too predictable, which is good. I enjoy reading science fiction/fantasy, and this is pretty good, though the feel is similiar to that of a fairy tale with a better plot. I recommend this for readers of all ages, particularly ages 9 to 14.

Can't wait for the sequel!

The Fireball Adventure explores the imagination and the penchant for adventure within all of us. I enjoyed it immensely and look forward to the sequel.

a backyard adventure...

This tale takes you back to a simpler time. A time when you could trust the neighborhood. Kids wandered about from home to home and parents could depend on one another to keep them in check. We all had more than one mom in those days. Lucky for us there were more kids than moms and we had the whole world as our playground. Such times called for adventure... and adventure was around every corner; Riding bikes to the Artesian well. Only the icy-cold water from that rusty old pipe could satify our thirst, and don't forget the water-crest that sprouted under it; Camping out under the stars with nothing but a sleeping bag in the yard. A friendship that has its roots in such a neighborhood could last well beyond any other friendship. Perhaps even beyond the boundaries of our universe... enjoy the Fireball Adventure.
