This review is from: The Caves That Time Forgot (Seven Sleepers Series #4) (Paperback)

I can't rave about this series highly enough!! It is an extraordinary sci fi for Christians. Every book in the series is about 7 pre-teens who are on missions for and with Jesus. I've read all 10 in the series to my 7 & 8 year old boys. MEGA HIT!! Do you know other Christian sci fi books?

5.0 out of 5 stars great book! i don't care how unoriginal that sentence is., July 16, 2000

This review is from: The Caves That Time Forgot (Seven Sleepers Series #4) (Paperback)

this book is fantastic! it is sooo good. i mean, i read it like three times, (maybe more), and i'm not sick of it yet. my friend got this book mega-cheap at a garage sale and the only reason she bought it was caus it was accidently in the bag she put books in. i'm really sorry (and mad) she didn't get more. There were a ton of em'! okay, i'll tell you what it is about. see, the seven sleepers were sent to this island to help a bunch of really uncivilized people. they talk to the captain of the boat who brings them there and he shuts up and refuses to talk about it. finally they get the cook or someone to talk about it. he starts babbling bout these monsters on the island. later, the seven sleepers find out the "monsters" were dinosaurs. They also meet 2 tribes that war against each other. They found out about only one at first. or rather, the tribe found them. they were saved from having their hearts cut out by the chief's daughter. they taught the tribe all these stuff, like making bread and weapons and how to help other people. later, they helped make peace between the two tribes. I'm not telling how, that's giving away too much. i've already said too much. all i'm gonna say is the ending is pretty funny, especially to me. darn, i'm really bad at making endings so i guess i'll make an unoriginal ent to match with an unoriginal beggining. You know, great book! the end
