Adventures in Spacetime is about Chas, Toni, Neil, Lily, and some others meeeting a creature named Gekko, and they help him defeat Shang. They learn about Oceanography, mountainnering, and rockclimbing,and even a little bit of love. They also meet a mountain man named Ol' Bill. They learn a lot about Mountain Men and the type of weapons they use, and a little bit of their life style. They continue their battle with Shang, and eventually in the book they defeat him, and they also help the abducttes that Shang had abducted. When they go to learn about the ocean life, they meet Lilly and learn about dolphins and whales.
Gekko almost dies in the book, but with his special capibillities, he brings himself back to life. Neil happens to fall on love with Lily. They went their seperate ways in the end, but eventually they will find each other again. Over all the book was great and eveyone that reads it should like it.

I read this book when I was in Mr Neills class. Ive always love Sci-Fi and this was deffinately no exception. Unique story line, well developed characters, and a wonderful mix of science fact with science fiction makes for a book I still enjoy 3 years later.

The unfurling plot, and very real characters quickly draw the reader in. I had a deep desire to know what is going to happen to each personality in this sci-fi novel. As the adventures deepen and expand it is impossible to put this book down. The intriguing real historical events, along with vivid descriptive inserts of dirt biking,mountain climbing, and marine biology make this book interesting for many diverse readers. It begs a sequel though with the ending. I wonder if the author will consider one someday?

This is a very good book. I could read it over and over again. I am recommending this book to everyone who reads this review. I am only in the 6th grade and Adventures in Spacetime is a reading level about 8.9. I had to ask my teachers about some of the words in it. There is a lot of science terms in it. One of the words my teacher had to ask Mr. Neill(Author) about. I go to the school Sierra Vista Middle School. Yes, that is the school that Mr. Neill teaches at. Other than the words the book is good for children AND adults. So you should read this book in my opinion. Thank you for taking the time to read the reviews.

Adventures in Spacetime is one of the best books I have ever read. Of course I am only in the 6th grade but my sister had Mr. Neill as a teacher and I read the book and it was amazing. If you haven't read it you sure have missed the oppritunity of a lifetime. I can't spell that well but who cares. It is a very, very, very, and very so on good book.

Adventures in Spacetime is a pretty good book. When I first started to read it I didn't want to because I thought it was going to be another science fiction book with aliens taking over the world and stuff like that, but it wasn't. I wasn't thrilled in the beginning, but I actually began to like the book, and looked forward to reading it in class.
I really like the starpilot the most, because he was nice,curious, and different.
The only part I didn't like was the dinosaur part with the hurting of them, only I guess because I am a animal lover and I hate knowing that a creature that isn't human dieing or being hurt.
I would read the book because it is something different if you don't really like science fiction, and you get something new out of the book, but if you do like science fiction then you would really love this book.

The book Adventures In Space Time is an action adventure that tells of a young boy, his sister, his dog, two rock climbers, and a news reporter that discover a lost extraterrestrial that is looking for his home. The alien's name is Gekko Troodahn. He really is just a dinosaur that was taken from his time and enslaved to become a star pilot.
Gekko steals the interstellar starship, Scorpious, from the Maljugadors and attempts to find his way home. Instead he gets lost and ends up at earth. The Maljugidor, Shang, chases Gekko and tries to recapture him and the vessel. Shang abducts all of the people that had seen Gekko on his visit to earth. The rest of the story tells of how the only humans that saw Gekko and weren't abducted try to save their friends.
They main characters encounter many obstacles and people. The final obstacle they will have to face is one for Gekko. He has to make the choice either to save his friends or to save his own planet Soar. To see what I mean by this and what the choice is, read the book.
This was a very well written book. It kept me wanting to read on. Wanting to find out what happened next. I hope to find out that there will be a sequel. But, that may not happen. Oh well. Still I liked the book, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I think that the book of Adventures in Space Time is a very good book. When Gekko Troodahn helps neil up from the ledge thats the best part of the houl book. I think that derric neil is a good createrof all the people. In the book [Adventues in Space Time]gekko troodahn, mr.neil, lily,and so on. The way that neal makes all the people sound like ther rilly alive in this world and i thank that is incretible so that why i thank that this bookis the third bestalso i thinkthat is the most i ever read in a lifetime even when i do book reports.

I may be a little biased because Mr. Neill is my science teacher, but I think this book is great to read. It has interesting characters and concepts, along with mant twists thoughout the story. The book is about an alien named Gekko Troodahn who gets lost and finds himself on Earth. While tring to get home, he meets some new humkan friends, and soon they all find themselves in a the adventure of a lifetime. I admit though that the end is definately a little weird! I do however recoomend this book to buy and read.
