Good memories

I read this book when I was a kid and I have some good memories of it. I never finished the series but I remember some specific things about it that may be helpful. The series, as it continued, became about how the characters dealt with internal and external conflicts. The characters, who receive their intoduction in this book, seem stereotypical but each has character flaws most teens can relate to. After the first couple of books I was hooked. The writing (from what I can remember) was perfect for the preteen reading level and the scientific aspects of the Mars mission were plausible. Its great that parents have rediscovered these books.

Opens the door to new destinations!

I homeschool my 5 children, ages 6-14. We have read this out loud several times. They never get tired of listening. It opens up the mind to the what ifs, maybes and I think I cans' in life! This is a must read for anyone who loves space, challenges and a good plot! I thank Rick for writing a book that has kept the doors of my children's imagination open. I wish the series went on forever! Thanks again. I recommend this book to adults and children alike.
