Review: Abduction Learning Curve
Rating: 5 out of 5

This book had me hooked from the beginning.  I would call it historical fiction.  A young boy starts out in a sea-going ship as the cooks assistant but also learning various jobs when the Captain will let him (including climbing the masts, steering, learning the stars).  When he secretly follows the trouble-making cook during a trading pow wow with a friendly group of indians, he is abducted by a rogue indian group and the story goes on from there; how he learns to survive by absorbing knowledge from those around him and yes there's even a treasure to boot.  This is well worth the read.  It kept me interested to the last.
