Tunnels and Deeper by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams

I have recently read both of these - and was very impressed with the both the fast paced action of the novels and the unusual storyline of the set. The third book in the series Falling is yet to be released.

Will Burrows, main character, is drawn into the fantastic world that exists deep beneath the streets of London in an attempt to locate hos step-father. He soon discovers that the underground world he stumbles upon is both very sinister and very familiar. As he ventures deeper into the abyss he encounters many strange creatures and exiles from the world above.

This set is best suited to the more mature junior reader. I really enjoyed them - but I do enjoy science fiction!

Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox - Eoin Colfer

For those of you who have been waiting for the latest in the series, you won't be disappointed! It is fast paced, action packed story...

Check out the fantastic Artemis Fowl website here...

Invisible City - M G Harris

Joshua Garcia is in trouble - his archaeologist father has died in a suspicious plane crash in South America, his mother is in denial and he is searching for the truth. The fluorescent cover of this book matches the fast paced action inside the pages. Science fiction, adventure with a touch of history rolled into one. I'm sure you'll love this iif you enjoyed the Alex Rider and Artemis Fowl series.
