I brought this book out of dedication, being the biggest Lost fan I know. I wasn't expecting much from such a small book but each page of it is engrossing and full of the same twists and turns that the television programme is famous for. It took me about a day to read but it was well worth it!

As a fan of the amazing TV series, I wanted to consume anything to do with the show that I could find so once I knew there were tie-in books I had to have them. Sadly I felt that they had been rushed out to tie in with the series and make money. The story is not bad, but it is not amazing either, as a fan of the show I was disappointed, although I still read all three books I do not think that they are worth more than a quick read and do not really add anything to the show itself being about new characters not mentioned in the series with only brief cameos from the well known stars of the show. Oh well, I've read worse books but these are not essential even for Lost fans.

I was interested to see how far into the series the book would pursue the storyline; and how the characters would play their roles.
I thought overall the book was an easygoing read and the way that the flashbacks had been written were pretty good. I was also able to visualise each character doing and saying the things they did in the book.
I enjoyed this book because it was simple and kept true to the TV series. However, at times I felt that the style of writing was quite simple. Perhaps this book was more suitable for younger readers?
For people who are looking for a quick, easy read. And for all Lost fans.

I too bought this book out of dedication for the show. I wasn't expecting much, but was surprised to find it rather engrossing. Thats strange because the lead character is rather uninteresting, and the book not very well written. The pace however is perfect, structured just like the show.
The shows characters also crop up, byt most of their appearances seem rather perfunctory, unnecessary and badly cobbled together.
But then again, what books can you buy now for under £5? None.
