Advantages: Good entertainment

Disadvantages: It's too short

Earthsearch is without doubt one of those books that for those in the know is a very well kept secret on a very good series of stories that have so far spaned 10 1 hour radio plays, 3 books and soon to be a major TV series.

This book in the Earthsearch series, starts the whole thing going and start in such away that you will find yourself late for meals and the like. The story is about a group of travellers looking for Earth and the events that they get tied up in. It is set very far into the future.

The good guys are a very likeable lot and you find yourself liking them very early into the book. The bad guys are such that you soon want some very serious harm to come to them.

The book is based on the BBC Radio 4 series broadcast in the early 1980's and is still to this day the second most popular radio series every produced by the BBC, the number one series?

Is that little known series called the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

This book is very easy to get into, the scenes are well written and because of the way it was written you find it very easy to see the scenes as the author wants you to see them. You will soon find yourself turning pages at a fast rate, just to find out if the good guys or the bad guys win.

So if you want to get into a very well kept secret this is the book read. Just make sure you have nothing planned for a few hours!
