Starstormers by Nicholas Fisk

capellan's review

3.0

I remember reading this in primary school, probably not that long after it came out. It's fun stuff for what it is, though obviously intended for youngish readers (8-12 I'd say would be the best range). Four intrepid teens build a spaceship and take to the stars to find their parents, and mostly find danger along the way. A lot of the sequences feel a bit abbreviated - if he were writing today I suspect Fisk would have been allowed a lot more pages to work with - but it's a fun little romp for the right age bracket.
