Product Description

Product Description

In the back of Ryan's mind lingered a childhood daydream of some day in his own distant future, where he was standing next to a fabulous sporty hatchback, girlfriend by his side, eager to go places. He had the car, he had the girl, he was young, tall, handsome and successful. As the years passed, one by one, the aspects of this dream failed to materialise.

Except the sporty hatchback, for there it was, right in front of him, goading him with its lilting headlights. "Love me, I am your dream car," it whispered seductively in his ear, "We can be anything you want us to be."

And he realised all at once that he hated that car.

It was that unique and special moment in every young man's life: the day he buys his first car and this one had style, class, a pedigree... and a mind of its own.

No Dice is one of those books that is quite hard to describe. It easily fits the 'Young Adult' 'Science Fiction' and 'Adventure' tags, but labelling it only as such would be doing it a disservice.

As a 40-something male, it has been a long time since I have been seen as a 'Young Adult' yet this novel worked for me. The science fiction tag relates to the mechanism the author uses to mesh the present day with the 1980's. If you can forget that, then this is a story of two young men, working together to solve a long standing mystery that revolves around a white Ford Escort XR3i and it's previous owners.

The attention to period 80's detail is spot on. The character interaction, especially between the younger characters is just how I recall it. In fact, so much so that it made me cringe in places to remember how I once acted.

For the 16-24 year old reader there's a great story, a sneaky history lesson thrown in and a real surprise twist towards the end.

I get the feeling that this book is one that could well be shared around the classrooms of our high schools and colleges for a while to come and with the Kindle version selling at less than a pound, it's got to be worth taking a chance on.
