This book was refreshing in its original plot. Was enjoyable to read." - Josh Hochman"...Excellent story / read from start to finish. good pace and characters. Best part is that there is closure at the end - even though this is a series." - Thomas DiMarino"I love a good story with adventure and suspense and no foul language! Perfect story for teen boys especially. Can't wait to read part 2!" - Darlene Yaz"Five stars! Great story, full of twists, full of action. It's quite long, I thought it would get slow after a while, but that was not the case. It was keeping me on my toes all the way to the end. A must read!" - Atilla Beno"I read a lot, but not much what I would consider science fiction. The exception being Robert Heinlein, I would compare this book to his early books for teens. Best compliment I could give." - Amazon Customer"Exciting and well written. The dialog was natural and the characters were well developed. I liked the way the author wove several historical events into the story. Overall it was a very good science fiction story and I will probably read more of the books in this series." - Jim Sibigtroth Sibigtroth… (meer)

Very Good book ( )
  Rempala | Dec 3, 2019 |
Hard to put down, and I was sad when it ended. 4 boys discover a secret society within their town. Despite their youth, they are made junior initiates with the hope that they will become full members when older. Circumstances force the society to give them quite a bit of responsibility. The boys manage to stay respectful for the most part. I would read the next book in this series. I hope that it does not delve too deeply into mysticism in future books. ( )
