This is a MUST READ.
I heard so much about this book that I finally decided to read it. It's a great book, it has everything that a teenager would want to read, full of action and adventure. it starts off a little slow but picks up quick, fast, and in a hurry! it really catches all of your attention and makes you want to keep turning the page. GREAT BOOK!

Interesting
This is not my normal reading genre, I'm more into the paranormal romance, or romance in general, so my reading this was a stretch, my liking it at all is amazing. So all I've got to say is that I loved the plot, very interesting, it was kind of hard for me to get into however. Not a page turner by any means but I still liked the way it was written. The ending kind of disappointed me, and I probably won't be reading the other two unless I run out of books on my "to read" list. All and all, if this is your type of genre, you'll probably love it, as for me I think I'll be going back to my own areas of interest.

It's always interesting to read the blurbs on the front of a book. You know the ones I mean; the recommendations from fellow authors about why you should pick up a copy of the book in question. What's even more interesting is when the blurb comes from someone other than an author. In the case of FIRESTORM, the first in The Caretaker Trilogy by author David Klass, the recommendation comes from Greenpeace. Yes, the same Greenpeace International that is dedicated to protecting and saving the Earth from the harmful practices that threaten to destroy it. If that isn't enough to get your attention, then maybe you should turn your ear towards Jack Danielson, the hero of FIRESTORM:

"Name's Jack Danielson. Eighteen. As of right now, not quite sure I'll live to see nineteen. Always been a pretty good guy, easy-going, laid back, friend to all and enemy to none. Smart, but not too smart. Athletically inclined, but never enough to be the best. Now my whole world is falling apart. Seems my father isn't my father. My mother isn't my mother. The fact that my dad who isn't my dad shot off his own foot to prove his point should be strange enough. It isn't. There are weird bat-like creatures chasing me, and things called Gorms. I've somehow ended up on a motorcycle with a humongous mongrel dog named Gisco, who happens to be telepathic, riding in a sidecar. Now there's a woman named Eko kicking my a** on a daily basis to make me stronger. Why? Because I have to find Firestorm so that I can save the Earth. And no, I have no idea what that is. And yes, I'm a fan of sentence fragments. Look it up, my friend, but not right now. Right now I have to save the world, before there's no future on Earth for me to come back from."
FIRESTORM is Jack's story, but it's also the story of what could very well happen. It's a fantasy that could be truth, if the destruction of Earth by mankind continues on its current course. After reading this wonderful book, I clearly understand why it's endorsed by Greenpeace. One of the best things of the book, besides its underlying message of taking care of the planet, is Gisco, the telepathic dog. He adds an element of humor, such as his devotion to the O Great Dog God, that lightens up a story that could come across as preachy, but never does. It's very hard to categorize FIRESTORM into one category, but if I had to I would call it a coming-of-age, contemporary fantasy, science-fiction, paranormal adventure story.
If that doesn't catch your attention, I don't know what will. Let me just say that once you start reading, you won't be able to stop. And when you're finished, you'll want to read more. FIRESTORM is, luckily, the first book in The Caretaker Trilogy, so maybe if we hound Mr. Klass night and day he'll give us what we want--and sooner rather than later. -

What an AMAZING book
I thought that book was amazing. I can't wait to read the next book. What I was shocked about was that Eko dies and I thought Jack and Eko make a nice couple. I think she shouldn't have died. Well that was my opinion.

If I had an extra hand I would give it Three Thumps up.
I have to say that first part of the book is kind of boring. Until the characters are introduce and after that one will have no choice but love them. David is great in keeping the reader reading more and more. Also opens the eyes to the reader on how important it is to keep the animals and trees saved from being destroyed. This book is great and I'm heading over to buy the 2nd book today.

A must read
This book is about a boy who finds himself in a world of lies. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat by telling you scary thoughts about how the future might look. It's not just informative either, it is packed with action and just the right amount of mystery.

Waiting for the next book in the trilogy.
I could not put this book down. I literally read it within one day and am presently waiting for the next in the series to come out. Outstanding. The short phrases get tiring after awhile and it sort of detracts from the book, but it's still a great read.
