Wonderful book

I thought it was good clean fun for my kids to read - exciting but not spooky. What a quirky ending!

Ripping good yarn!

The Key to Space is a ripping good yarn. The story is about a high school freshman who finds himself exploring the dangers and excitements of both high school and outer space. The book builds from the concrete realities of starting high school right on through to intergalactic conspiracies. Appropriate for adults as well as kids, the story is funny and thrilling in equal measure. It moves right along and I couldn't put it down. I can't wait for the next one!

An excellent adventure

It's clever, it's funny, it's enlightening, it's insightful -- and it boldly goes where few first-time authors have gone before: to entertaining heights of adventure and insight. You'll enjoy yourself along the way -- and you'll find yourself looking forward to the next adventure.

The Key to Space - then next big thing

I read this book from both the perspective of just entertainment and with an eye for a good book for neices & nephews. I really enjoyed it - even as an adult, but I think it's a complete winner for kids too. There is nothing in this book that would be inappropriate for kids of any age, but it's still got good humour for the kids; I was suprised with a good chuckle in a few places too. It has great imagery, very creative setting that got my imagination going, but nothing was too complicated. I didn't want to put it down because it was just a fun, fluid read. I really can't wait for the next one and would highly recommend it as a good read and a can't miss give for anyone that likes to read a good adventure and/or sci fi. I think it would make a great, fun movie too.

A must read!

I thought it was a great book for adults and teenagers. It was easy to read and flowed from one thing to the next. I also think because it was set in the city I live in, it was easy to see the comparisons of the city in the book. I did not want to put this book down when I first was handed the book, it was that engaging. I can't wait for the second book and the ones to follow after that.
