    Great Book

    This is an amazing book and one of the few books I have found that have kept my interest all the way through the story line. I'm a 14 year old and I do not enjoy reading but this book was so interesting and captured my imagination so well that I have read all 5 books in this series. I definetly recommend this book to anyone. It has a wonderful blend of religon, science, virtual reality and other amazing topics that are wonderful worded it this book. So basicaly I love this book and it's now my favorite book ever!

    my boys enjoyed this book

    I am always looking for good books that will capture the interest of my 8 and 10 year old boys. "Death Trap" drew them in from the very beginning. The title alone makes them want to give the book a shot (and not be intimidated by the lack of pictures or number of pages). I was very surprised when my 10yo finished this 257 page book in only 2 days! He thought it was a very good story-- what's not to like about robots, virtual reality and living on Mars?

    The relationships between the characters and the exciting plot make this book enjoyable for the older kid set and parents as well. I personally enjoyed reading about Tyce's adventure and appreciate how his struggle to believe in God was woven into the story in a subtle and natural manner. There was no overt religiosity or preaching, but rather a plain and personal reconciliation of faith and science in the different characters.

    While we received a complimentary copy of this book from Tyndale, we will definitely be purchasing the other books in the Robot Wars series!

    A good read.

    A Christian YA Sci-Fi novel that is a good read for readers of all ages.

    I had mild difficulty actually getting into the novel at first, but once beyond the first few pages, the story becomes more fascinating until you reach the end. It is really two separate stories in one volume, but it this is not a distraction. The combination of normal adolescent behavior, thoughts, and actions combined with intense moral/ethical difficulties and an isolated Martian colony make for a gripping read. As the original stories were written in the early 2000s, it is slightly dated, but overall is a great read in which all the moral issues are presented in the light of Christian teachings and lifestyle. Definitely a book to use when attempting to teach children basic moral philosophy. I eagerly anticipate reading the rest of the books in this series.
