Jill WilliamsonOregonAge: 25-34Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5October 14, 2009Jill WilliamsonOregonAge: 25-34Gender: femaleJay and Lila Cooper join their father on a trip to the Island of Aquarius to rescue a missing missionary, Adam MacKenzie. When they arrive, they discover a man claiming to be Adam who has declared himself the leader of a bizarre colony. The man claims his people want to live in peace away from the modern world. But people keep dying. And when Jay, Lila, and their father start investigating, they become the next targets of the mysterious Moro-Kunda. And to make matters worse, the island is in big trouble. Earthquakes and erosion are tearing the island apart. Will the Coopers have enough time to find the real Adam MacKenzie before the island destroys itself? I enjoyed this Cooper Kids book almost more than the first. This one didn't have the political issues that the first had, which was the hardest part for my son to sit through. Peretti is such a creative author. The things he comes up with and the way he pulls them off amaze me. He has the mind of a movie director. I loved the action and the mystery in this one. It was exciting and the Cooper kids showed true courage and faith as they experienced the Island of Aquarius. Highly recommended for readers of all ages.

marciaAshville, OhioAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Feel as if you were thereFebruary 26, 2011marciaAshville, OhioAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Frank Peritte is an exceptional writer and even though this book is for teens, adults can enjoy it too. He has a way
of including you into the story. You feel as if you are
there with Dr. Cooper, Jay and Lila. This book had me on
the edge of my seat. Couldn't put it down. And of course
the message of Christianity is woven into the story as it
should be day by day. I wish he would write more. -
Chance Chastain5 Stars Out Of 5February 10, 2010Chance ChastainWe have a young, reluctant reader who is hooked on this series. What a wonderful blessing to have him look forward to reading time each day and constantly tell us what happened in his story. He really enjoys the characters and is starting to see a reality of why we choose to live a life for Jesus. Thank you for providing quality entertainment.

Christa5 Stars Out Of 5May 19, 2008ChristaThis was the first Peretti book I read. I read it when I was pretty young and at the time I remember being scared of it, but it was so good that I finished it anyway!!! now that I'm 13, I am enjoying reading This Present Darkness which I also highly recommend. This book was so good, that after I had read it, I read it to my younger sisters!!!

satisfied5 Stars Out Of 5thrilling!January 14, 2021satisfiedQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5I actually got this book for my brother at a thrift store, and when he liked it so much, I got the whole series for him for Christmas and his birthday. It is definitely a keep-you-at-the-edge-of-your-seat kind of book! Before you found out what was happening on the strange (really strange!) island of Aquarius, you couldn't help feeling that something was off, but, happily, everything was later explained. Escape from the Island of Aquarius definitely grabbed your attention and didn't let go until you finished it. Several times, I felt like screaming, "Oh no! How will they get out of this one?" Great read!
