The Intruders

Reviews

"An intriguing story of adventure, recommended.

It's all fun and games until you realize the reality of it. The Intruders tells the story of six Bronx teens flung into a future war where they use their knowledge of the subways to win a war where the surface of the Bronx has once again become a forest. Initially enjoying their new found importance, they soon realize war is no game."

-Midwest Book Review, March 2010 (Oregon, WI USA)

 Dialog is convincing, relationships very true-to-life, emotions mixed and genuine, and the story’s intriguing and fun.

-Sheila Deeth,The Writers Network

Right away you are thrown into the adventure…. Every page has a new surprise. I loved best was the heartfelt moment where the main character struggles with showing his true emotions and being a leader to his peers. This book is suitable for any age, as it reflects all of our inner struggles in everyday life. A great read!
