I absolutely loved this book. Reeve has a wonderful way of spinning a thrilling tale. I enjoyed the whole book. Each and every character stood out, lots of wry humor, plenty of action and a great story to boot.
This about a boy named Art and his sister Myrtle. They live in a "house" that sails in outer space with their dad. The house is soon attacked by giant white spiders. Art and Myrtle are able to flee. They make it to the moon only to be captured. There they are rescued by Jack Havoc, a very famous pirate. From there the fun and action keep going.
I look forward to the other 2 books in this series as well as more of Reeve's books.
