← GF1 is a fantastic mix of new and old. M.G. Harris has done an amazing job developing Anderson’s trademark formula of ADVENTURE and RESCUE to inspire a new generation of fans. Whilst also enabling old fans like me to buzz back to my childhood days. It has everything that you would want and expect from a five star book. You’ll soon find yourself rocketing to Tracey Island once you start this epic adventure.

Complete with a fantastic array of vehicles designed for specific rescue missions, and a canine sidekick, Gemini Force One: Black Horizon hints at more than being an updated version of Thunderbirds (that honour goes to what ITV are currently getting up to…), it’s a finely crafted adventure story with all the potential it needs to gain a loyal audience of youngsters. There’s a bevy of classic Anderson references for older fans to spot too (look out for Ben’s favourite rock band!), and that cross-appeal will surely work in the novel’s favour. All in all, a blast of a book from cover to cover. →

Random Review

A headlong new title in this best-selling series, Joshua narrates a new adventure with his trademark sharpness and familiar cool. Joshua finds himself caught up in a terrifying world of the Mayan past where nothing is quite what it seems to be. How will Joshua get back to the present day and will everything seem the same afterwards? A page turning adventure with a great character at its heart.” Julia Eccleshare
