OMG where should I start? Spartan and the Green Egg. Is an utterly compelling story, gorgeously written with a weird twist in the end. I was so sucked in, the time just sped by. It was captivating and very cleverly written with beautiful illustrations. This book was not what I expected but instead it was much more! It's a book for children but I enjoyed the book as an adult too. Sometimes you come across a book that's very hard to forget, a book that has a story so amazing it stays in the back of your mind wondering what if. Well, this is one of those books. Spartan and the Green Egg is a fantasy book that is pretty well thought out, all the weird technology, gadgets and alien beings are all so believable you'll be convinced it all really happened. I feel the logic and the factual information keeps the reader believing the fantasy. Another thing I really like about the book is that it has a strong positive message, great for kids to ponder about.I bought this book for my daughter. My intentions were to flip through the pages and see what it was all about. Fifteen minutes later I was still reading and enjoying the beautiful illustrations. Shortly after that I was searching the net for book 2. Not often am I so profoundly moved by a work of fiction and never before this type of fiction, the comic book type. That's why I feel I must rate this book no less than five stars. The author has done an amazing job delivering such a wonderful read. My daughter is a pretty tough one to please, but this book did it with ease. Overall, a highly recommendable purchase for fans of the genre you can't go wrong.
