Review
"A winner. Sheffield has succeeded admirably, with a fast-paced science fiction novel that has a lot of appeal. Autism, adolescent interactions, romantic interests, peer group pressure, and the struggle for survival on an alien world are all portrayed in a diverting novel that features engaging teen characters who survive by their own quick wits and willingness to work together against a common enemy."-"VOYA""The pacing is brisk. . .and the technical detail is up to the usual high standard." -"Publishers Weekly"
