Guy Erma and the Son of Empire is a swash-buckling, roller-coaster, action adventure thriller for boys and girls. <\/span>

\n==============================<\/span>
\nJust when I’m ready to say that science-fiction isn’t really my thing, along comes a book that proves me wrong yet again. Guy Erma & the Son of Empire, while geared towards teens, certainly didn’t let this grown up down. Filled with a brand new world and all sorts of new characters, I had a hard time putting this book down. Honestly, if you enjoy sci-fi, then this could be the perfect rainy day afternoon read for you. That, or plan on staying up late because you’re not going to want to put it down until the very end.<\/span>
