3.5 stars This series came in a preview box. Usually something that makes me crazy..because it is books sent by a book seller or publishing house. Their hope is that you won't return the book (return postage is free) and then you are stuck with the books.. Well I saw this series and thought...this looks cool! SO I took them out of the book and told our director "Let's Try these" I will still go with cool!
I think being in space would be cool, but the same a submarine...not sure it would be my cup o'tea!
