A fun little YA novel - a sci-fi flavoured mystery. It's got a 50's style innocence to it that's quite different that the current darker style currently in vogue. A solid three for me, I suspect I'd have liked it more if I was closer in age to the main character. ( )

Pretty good for a book I bought at a thrift store while on vacation, mostly for the funky cover and its claim to let me "expirience the future-now!" The book takes place on a space station in 2018, and since its already 2015 when Im writing this review on earth we clearly need to step it up a notch to reach the expeactations of the 1980s. :P Overall a fun and fast read but not as interesting as I had hoped. Worth picking up if you run across it and like slightly nonsensical scifi, but I wouldnt seek it out even if you are a Bruce Coville fan. ( )
