Format:Mass Market Paperback
Steven Gould is one of my favorite authors and this may very well be his best book. It is awesome. A group of friends open a doorway to another world where they find prehistoric adventure. Saber-tooth tigers, giant misquitoes, a primitive, undeveloped world. This book is filled with technology, adventure, excitement, and action, even if some of the characters turn out to be really weird. Unlike many books these days, it also has a strong ending.

Steven Gould has done it again! He explores the trials of youth and weaves a tale that is both thrilling and timely. As he did with his first novel - _Jumper_ - Gould has given fans of Robert Heinlein a new source of adventure with a familiar yet unique style all his own. _Wildside_ is one of those novels that draws the reader into the story without insulting his or her intelligence. I am eagerly waiting to see what magic Gould reveals to us in his next novel.

I read this book after I first read Jumper (also by Steven Gould) and I was just as pleased with the result in his writing...I was kept interested throughout the whole book!!! I think if you get the chance, you should read this book (among his other books too!!!)
