Rather predictable for an adult, but still fun and entertaining. I enjoy a good adventure story sometimes that doesn't involve murder or drugs or corrupt politicians or other adult elements. I look forward to the next installment.

The Sabotage is the second book a new series by Survivor's own Jeff Probst. Geared to middle schoolers, This installment continues with Jane, Vanessa, Carter, and Buzz in the middle of a fight for survival. Having almost being rescued by their parents after their first shipwreck, the kids find themselves on a new island, this time inhabited by the Nakula people. Their only hope of survival and rescue pits them against other island youth in a race to the other side of the island through the forest. It's Survivor meets Hunger Games.
I like these stories even if they are for middle school kids. Well thought out and enjoyable for youngsters and adults.

In The Sabotage, the second book in the Stranded: Shadow Island series, the Benson-Diaz kids have won an advantage in the Raka Nau competition in their quest to get a boat to get them off of Shadow Island. However, this makes them a threat in the eyes of the other competitors, leading one to kidnap Buzz to slow them down.
This very clearly a middle book, without much of it's own beginning, middle, and end. But the adventures of the kids are exciting and compelling, if completely unrealistic. Plus, once again, this book is about sticking together as a family, a great them running through all six of the Stranded books.
