Review: I loved reading this book--but you pretty much have to read all of them--and this one serves as a great set-up piece!

For me, THE ISLAND is a book that takes hold from the start and makes me want to know what's going to happen next. Michael Stark does a great job drawing you in, setting up the situation, and letting you know this is going to eventually be an apocalyptic read. From the beginning I liked nobody's hero William, spooky Daniel, and likeable, crotchety Elsie. I love paranormal/supernatural, but I like the way the first book grounds you completely into realism, allowing the plausibility of the following books, even when things get supernatural. I'm already into the third book in the series, and I look forward to finishing the rest. Kudos, Mr. Stark!
