Well-written and thought provoking for adults and kids.
I've read books 1-5 in the "Pendragon" series. I thought that 1 and 5 were good. I felt that 2 and 4 were really good, but this book, to me, is the standout of the series (so far).What MacHale has done in "The Never War" - and kids may not realize this -is take a mysterious piece of American history and use it as a backdrop for Bobby Pendragon's third Halla-based adventure. The story is set in a place both familiar and different to the reader. It takes place on Earth...in the past and in the future.I don't want to go into the plot too much. I'd much rather you learn about that from the book than from me. Suffice it to say this, though - MacHale weaves a plot-web of gang warfare, genocide, and really tough choices to explain the destruction of the airship Hindenburg.What I said about 'really tough choices' is unquestionably the most compelling part of the story. Bobby learns firsthand what it means to choose the lesser of two evils...and you feel for him.I recommend this book whole-heartedly. If you're a parent reading this review, and your son or daughter reads the "Pendragon" series, you should check this one out. It's thought-provoking, and it would be a good springboard from which to discuss some tough issues with your child.
