[.ca] Mission 1: Oxygen Level Zero (ISBN 0842343040)

A Promising Beginning:
Tyce Sanders is your average 14-year-old kid. Except for one thing. He just happens to be the only kid on the experimental station on Mars. In fact, he was born on Mars and has never been to Earth. However, when the station starts getting low on oxygen, he and the others may not live to see the next supply shuttle. Tyce must use his knowledge and virtual reality skills to solve the problem. Sigmund Brouwer has created a promising character in Tyce. I was most interested to learn of Tyce's disability. The setting is realistic sci-fi, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of this world. My only disappointment was in character development. Tyce, as narrator, is well developed, but the other characters are overlooked. A little longer book would have helped with this, but I'm sure with the base of this book, other chapters in the series will add to the other characters, too.
