A review by queenofthesouthernsun
S.O.S. by Gordon Korman
3.0
I read this series just after the Everest series by Korman, and, just, seriously stop killing your protagonists! For a book aimed at junior high students, no punches are pulled in that regard and I have to applaud that decision. It would have been far too easy to have them all survive, and I'm happy in a weird way that they all didn't. I'm also sort of not upset that died, since that plot line had the least loose ends.
Besides that, I think the Jack the Ripper storyline was all right and concluded really the only way it could have. This book was good, not as good, in my opinion, as the Everest or Island series, but still good. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Just, Korman, please stop with the protagonist death!
