What if the 'gods' of yesteryear were actually from another universe, deposited in our spacetime as the result of a freakish accident? Immortal in their new home, how would these gods react if one person could restore the natural order of things? In the SCIENCE CLUB KIDS series, Pandora, the first woman of ancient Greek myth, is about to punish the Titans for their violation of inter-universal export laws when their universe collapses, sending Pandora, the Titans, and the Olympians to the universe of Earth. The Titans and the Olympians gain godlike powers in this new universe, but Pandora has been replicated in some strange fashion, her existence having been broken apart into many instances of her life, each instance representing Pandora at a different age. Led by Prometheus, the Titans will stop at nothing to prevent Pandora from remembering her true identity. Bill English This wonderfully inventive novel by writing team Byron Hansen and Dennis Meier has the potential for a great kid's series. . . There is no doubt that Hansen and Meier know how to tell a story. The characters are well-rounded and the plot is weird enough to capture the Harry Potter crowd. . . .I hear the second novel in the series is done and the third is in the works. Hansen and Meier take their work seriously, and it shows on the page. Prediction: These guys are close to a nice New York deal. From a reader in Boise Hooked on science or math? Yes or no this book will grab your interest and pull you through a wormhole into a captivating world of Greek gods,time travel,and galactic catastrophes. You'll meet a group of delightful kids who have been scooped up by Zeus and Apollo, ancient Greek gods, to save a planet halfway across the galaxy from colliding with a meteor. Written with wit and humor the authors have successfully blended mathematical concepts,space and time travel theories,and mythology into a well-written and entertaining novel. The mathematical concepts are presented clearly, at times using diagrams,making understanding a cinch. Where a word might be new to a reader a definition is deftly and clearly incorporated into the story. Issues that confront kids today are not ignored either. Bullying and physical differences are addressed, along with just being a kid. This novel held my attention for the full length and I'm over fifty. The Science Club Kids and the Fabulous Phrenosan Wormhole Device is not just for kids! I for one am looking forward to Book # 2. eBook Reviews Weekly
