Where is Gunny? That is the question Bobby asks as he travels to Eelong, the next territory on Saint Dane's list. What he finds is Paradise. Really. A lush beautiful jungle. But, like most cases Bobby has faced so far, this place is far from Paradise. Beautiful, yes, but also deadly. And worse...the inhabitants of Eelong are very different. Bobby is horrified to find that the humans of this planet are treated like dumb animals; in fact they are dumb animals. Bobby is the only intellegent human on Eelong, and Eelong's only hope. Will the locals ever listen to what they consider a stupid animal? Will Bobby ever find Gunny?
Eelong was the first territory where I got sick when I read what was happening. A bit surreal of a situation with the fantastical inhabitants (which I won't reveal exactly who they are). It was the first time that even I started to question if Bobby was cut out for this and if he would make it. And his friends, Mark and Courtney, they play a huge role in this one. It was, as usual, action packed and clipped along. Saint Dane is getting stronger, and Bobby is full of doubts. I admit, I'm getting anxious to see exactly where everything is leading, and find out about the mystifying and slightly annoying hints that Saint Dane drops whenever he and Bobby have a conversation. I'm sure Bobby feels the same way! If you haven't started reading these books and you enjoy fantasy/science fiction you should give them a try. As Spader would say, Hobey-ho lets go!
