5.0 out of 5 stars This Book is Fan-didly-Astic, Jul 13 2004
By Shaina Simmons "ShaBanga" (Austin) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In sixth grade my teacher read my class this book about tripods that take over the world. I could not remember the title of the book or anything else about it, except, that i enjoyed it immensely. Everytime I tried to explain the book about tripods that take over the world to people, they just stared back at me in cofusion or like i was crazy. BUT IM NOT! And i can finally prove it! These books are great for young adults and i am buying the box set for myself to take with me to read while i serve in the Peace Corps...

5.0 out of 5 stars Something Stuck with Me, April 22 2004
By Kylee J Selby (Laramie, WY United States) - See all my reviews
I read The White Mountains ages ago when I was in fifth grade - back when The Pool of Fire hadn't even been written yet! I loved these books and something stuck with me! After all these years, I finally found the set and am ecstatic that I can now preserve them for my children to read - I would highly recommend them for anyone! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Girls Too, Sep 24 2003
By A Customer
I read these books over 20 years ago when I was a young girl. I loved them! I don't remember Little Women, I remember both The Tripod Series and The Chronicles of Narnia.

I've recently bought the books for my son (9), and I have enjoyed rereading the books. He loves the books even more than the Harry Potter books.

Just remember it's great for both boys and girls.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reads like pulp sci-fi (and that's a good thing!)...
People read sci-fi for a variety of reasons and it seems like different 'eras' of sci-fi cater to these different tastes. Read more
