The Lotus Caves

Lovely, pristine new copy of a classic sci-fi tale from my childhood at a great price. Came the third day after ordering it and shipping was free. So excited to have it and to read it again!

This was a childhood book from years ago. The book is a little silly because the technology is dated. And the writing style is a bit old. But I loved reading it again. I remember how it fired my imagination as a child, it might have been the first scifi book I ever read. So, read with the understanding it was written fifty years ago, but I think it's still enjoyable.

I read it in middle school for class , thought it was OK then. Read it again for class in high school, and now read it for the fun of reading.I still think it is OK with over 25 years between the first and latest reads. It is surprisingly not very dated, technology wise, for the most part.

Thought Amazon delivered to the wrong house. Nope! It was here all along.

I first read this in primary school and was absolutely absorbed completely. It's just as good reading it again as an adult. I love John Christopher's writing, the tripod series are really great too.

Good story about life on a moon colony. Also a kind of fantastic lunar cave world. If you enjoyed Space:1999, you'd probably enjoy this. Intended for probably junior high school kids, it's enjoyable enough for adults too.

The theme of the book is about being young and curious about the world around you and wanting to explore outside your limits.

A reprint of one of my favorite childhood authors. This books still is fresh and interesting years later.

My child loved the book.

Great book, I remember reading it when I was young. Very disappointed my copy had pages missing jumping from page 120 to page 153.
