I thought this book was just an adventure, but when some strange creatures were trapped in this invisible island, as the review shows, it became a suspense novel as well. With these creatures, that little boy sounds thrilling all by himself.

After reading the review, my interest in the book has increased. A magically concealed island, shape-shifting extraterrestrials, weird creatures, a prehistoric ichthyologist, a Polynesian warrior, a female pilot, and a young child who gets caught up in the conflicting alien factions and must find his way back to his parents all seem quite fascinating.
Reading it will be interesting. Congratulations for the BOTD!

"Sebastian and the Invisible Island" by Michael William Hogan is about eleven-year-old Sebastian, who got trapped on an invisible island. The story is intriguing, suspenseful and above all adventurous. Congrats to the author on #BOTD.

A well written review, thank you.
I immediately purchased this book, having read the sample and simply cannot put it down. “Sebastian and the Invisible Island” by Michael William Hogan is a suspenseful story describing a young boy’s extraordinary fishing expedition. Sebastian’s parents, unaware of their son’s activities, believing him to be asleep in his cabin on the lower deck, leave him behind. Whilst his parents are battling a storm and trying to ensure their survival on the stormy Pacific, Sebastian is fighting for his own survival. An intriguing and riveting story which will entice those who enjoy suspenseful mysteries steeped in fantasy. Congratulations on BOTD.
fantasy. Congratulations on BOTD.

This seems like an interesting and action packed story. Honestly, I don't think the chapters being short is an issue. In my opinion it increases readability. Congratulations on making book of the day!

A sci-fi book that talks about how Sebastian Youngfield got caught in a storm that send him to an invisible island where there are strange creatures, a Polynesian warrior, a prehistoric ichthyosaur, and a female aviator. The way the story contains suspense makes it interesting. I'm glad you enjoyed reading the book. Nice review.

This book promises to be interesting. I wonder how Sebastian would respond to the fact that he is on an island far from his parents. Interesting review.

How would Poor Sebastian cope without his parents on the island? And what's up with the random people already there? Looking forward to reading this book. Thanks for the amazing review.

It sounds scary to be stranded on an island, much less an invisible island. To uncover what happened and who saves this poor child, I'd like to read more of the tale. Great review!
