Imaginative and unique perspectives on the boredom of seclusion and discovery are presented in this book, which is overall hilarious, disturbing, and entertaining. The narration of the book is cogent and engrossing. It is indeed a good book. Your review is an amazing one ..Thanks to the author for the sample and Congratulations to the author on BOTD

I think I'm down for some adventure and a nice suspense filled story. The short chapters may not really be a problem afterall since the book already contains all that an intriguing narrative should.

It seems a lot is going on in this book. It's not necessarily a topic of interest, but I'm sure our fantasy lovers out there will find it exciting and a rewarding read. Congrats on BOTD.

The book has spiked my interest when I read the blurb on Amazon even before I read the review. It sounds so exciting: a magically cloaked island, shapeshifting extraterrestrials, strange creatures, a prehistoric ichthyosaur, a Polynesian warrior, a female aviator and a small boy who is caught up in between those feuding aliens and has to find the way back home to his parents. It will be interesting to read it. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Judging by the review of this book, Sebastian will need some sort of divine intervention to survive the animals on that island. How did he get stuck? How come he strayed away so much from his parent's watch? This will be an intriguing read. Congratulations on the book of the day.

I like how the imagery makes the book interesting and am curious how Sebastian will find a way out of this invisible island. I wonder what Sebastian felt when he noticed that he was alone for the first time. It might be an interesting read because of the magical island and what he might encounter during this adventure.

I was interested in reading this book after reading your review. However, on the second pageof the book, they immediately manage to make a culturally insensitive remark followed by an ageist one. I lost the appeal to continue reading.

It will be amazing to see how Sebastion escapes the invisible island. I enjoy stories that keep me on the edge of my seat, so I'd read this. Very nice review.

I’m definitely intrigued. I have two grandsons that are of the age appropriate for this book. I’m going to purchase it for them. I can’t wait for them to enjoy it.

Trapped on an invisible island with shapeshifters and strange creatures. That alone should convince anyone to read this book. I’d love to read it and find out if Sebastian finds a way out. A mixture of suspense and adventure with sci-fi fantasy will keep young readers hooked on the story.

The plot is intriguing. How do you get rescued from an invisible place? I don't know if I will like the mix of extraterrestrials, prehistoric creatures, etc. I guess I will have to read it to find out. Thank you for your review.

I find shorter chapters make books flow faster, and they also enable me to understand them more easily. This book about a young boy lost on an invisible island is sure to draw many readers. Thank you for your review.
