I liked this book because it was creative, fun and clean with lots of supernatural surprises. A real heroes story! Skip grew up when he was send back in time to that strange land and then came back to his time and surprised even himself. If only I could be a Tima-su-gota warrior too! Go Skip!!! I liked that he was shy and out of shape in the beginning and came to believe in himself. The crazy adventure he goes on really turns his life around in many ways. Now he has toned his muscles and mind. A good story for all.
