Review: Pretty Good book, Great Value for a Buck
Rating: 3 out of 5

I've read some of the other reviews, and I am surprised at the venom in some of the negative ones (who won't indicate they actually purchased the darn thing), especially as this book (a) cost a whopping dollar, and (b) this is a self-published author vs. from a large publishing house.Now that I have that off of my chest...I'm not going to have a spoiler as another reviewer did but I will say I enjoyed this book, and it reminded me a little of "Alas Babylon" but with a new science fiction twist.  As someone who spent many summers at camp, I could put myself into some of the character's shoes and relate.  If you're looking for a good story, and something that to me is worth good value for the dollar sales price, this will be worth your time with an interesting story and characters.  The characters could have more development, and the author kind of left it open in the end with the possibility of a sequel which I would like to read if it is written.  I did take away one star for a few grammatical and formatting errors, but it by no means takes away from the overall enjoyment.  Nice first book from an independent author.
