Summary: An eerie and enthralling book...
Review: reading (and re-reading) this book was always a thrill growing up, and I rather think it still would be even after all these years. The plot as I remember it has something to do with 2 kids from very different home backgrounds winning a contest that nets them a trip to a scientific compound on the moon. There they have some encounters with an alien who has been stranded there for a long, long time, all alone. Like most of Lawrence's books this has a certain darkness to it, but it was really moving, and not at all the typical kids-go-into-space-and-save-the-day sci-fi schlock.

Summary: Freaky
Review: This book concentrates on the spirit inside the flesh of our bodies. its about a kid who goes to the moon and starts trying to deal with questions he can't answer and wonders about the meaning of life. he meets a spirit-girl who would like to take him to her planet, if he helps her repair her ship, but his body would die before they made it there. Now Gareth has a choice to make. The ending is very disturbing and seems to promote suicide for those who want to roam free of their earthly bodies. I would definately not recomend this book.
