One of the original sci-fi classics
Up there with the original War of the Worlds as an original science fiction classic.
The art direction, look, feel and musical score of the film are amazing even by today's standards. Ok some of the special effects have not aged well, but it doesn't take away from the foreboding and interesting adventure.
Watch a brown-haired Leslie Nielsen do battle with the Krell alongside Robby the Robot.

Great twist at the end
I absolutely loved this book. The whole parallel universe stuff really got me thinking. The science wasn’t too high brow and the concept was really easy to understand. This book is unique and I haven’t read another quite like it. It left me wanting to know what happened to all of the other Jason’s that were left in the other worlds. I genuinely couldn’t put this book down.

I am a nerd for cli fi. This was a very well written and researched book but it told a story not just information overload. The characters were from different backgrounds and therefore had different perspectives on the events as they happened. The fact that politics, buisness, and science all were addressed in the book shows the author understands that events like this(even though fictional, for now) effect everyone. He had a very global perspective and the consequences were a bit frightening.

Catchy storytelling
Wonderfully Cheesy
I started this book not knowing what to expect, rather expecting not to like it. I was more than pleasantly surprised by how enthralled I became. This book is satire science fiction at its finest. The story is amusing and quick paced. It will keep you going page after page wondering what will happen next. Though some parts are given away early in the book, Hubbard finds a way to make the known events interesting.

On my journey to read more science fiction books I stumbled upon this one. The story itself was interesting and had some cool twists to it that I was not expecting. It was definitely one of those stories where I kept guessing at the answers to the mystery as I was slowly fed more and more information about the situation. It was a fun read but I don’t know if I am intrigued enough by the characters to keep reading this series.
