The problem is that the multimillion dollar computer did make a mistake. They were supposed to pick Erik Sterling, not Eric Sterling. But Eric can't convince the CSI of that. They have decided he is the one to be sent on the mission to stop the criminals who are making mutant lizards. So the next thing he knows, he, an ordinary kid who gets bad grades and is bad at sports and excels and getting into trouble, is dropped onto an island with the goal of stopping criminals. | Extra Notes: | This book has very little to recommend it as "Christian". Half of a page references enjoying an outdoor Church service and wanting to pursue such a thing at home. That's it. The rest of the book is about relying on each other (teamwork) or yourself (believing in yourself)rather than on God. It's simply an adventure story.
Psalm 139:14 - I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, I know that full well! | Reviewer: | J:-)mi | Recommendation Scale: | 1 |
