Ratings and reviews

Read first two chapters and gave up. It reads like a book written by a young teenager for young teenagers. If that's the case it is probably a decent book. It's many years since I was a teenager so I found the writing style rather simplistic, hence only three stars.

Not nearly dramatic enough. Char comes across as really silly child. Peter is way too soft!

a well written story. a little "short winded", but good entertainment.
