This story takes you into a world built with such imagination that it is impossible to escape the reading of it. I found myself imagining just how it looked guided by the words of the author. I devote time every evening to reading novels that capture my interest. This one did that and held me throughout.The world created by Mr. Richards is an exceptionally enchanting place, while at the same time there is the overlying sense of danger lurking just out of sight. When the two main characters, brother, and sister, set out to explore and adventure into the vast unknown of this new world, their encounters fascinating, exciting and filled with the promise of even greater things yet to come. It's gratifying to see two characters so young and yet so wise come into the story. It's a definite reflection of the result of their living with parents who engaged in some very intense parenting. I loved that aspect of the benefits of education. I will eagerly read the other books in the series. I am inspired to further encourage my young teen to learn about the romance of power of her mind.

Trapped (Audible Audio Edition) Douglas E Richards Josh Hurley Audible Studios Books Reviews
This book would be a great gift for any child who shows even the slightest interest in science. Ryan and Regan are very bright kids who use several scientific methods and problem solving to work their way through the obstacles they encounter in their adventure.
From figuring out the password puzzles in the first chapters of the book; simple experiments to discover if water is safe to drink; or if the aliens they run across are friend or foe; the book finds great ways to incorporate really interesting science facts without taking away from the story. There were actually quite a few things they figured out that I wouldn't have known myself!
Definitely a good read - could use a little more depth in the characters - but with the age range it is intended for, I predict a lot of happy adventure readers with a new respect for science experiments.
5th grade readers and up through adults will enjoy this sci-fi science book that is a real page turner. The author, Douglas Richards, wanted an exciting book for his children, couldn’t find one so he wrote one for them. We are lucky because we all get to read it as well!
Wonderful main characters who make being smart, cool! Who says a brother and sister can’t get along? Check out this book. You won’t want to put it down until you reach the exciting conclusion and then only to order the sequel!
I will definitely be reading the whole series and will do everything I can to get my 5 grand nieces and nephews to read and love them as well. I love this author's writing, saw this title and put it on my . Just came across it and read it. Oh how I wish I'd read it as a child. Not sure it would have been received in the same way back then (in the age of dinosaurs). But what a gem it is. Now that STEM is receiving so much attention, this is just perfect for kids of quite a young age. Read it and you will appreciate its value.
Book Review The Prometheus Project - Book 1 Trapped by Douglas E Richards
Reviewed by J Bryden Lloyd
Writing Style - 4.0/5.0 (Very Good)
Clearly aimed at children, and after I had read the book, my 10 year old daughter devoured this happily, before my 15 year old read it aloud to our 5 year old, who was equally enthralled. The structure is good throughout, the dialogue is nicely levelled and uncomplicated, and there is a good level of educational information included.
Character Development - 3.5/5.0 (Good)
It is easy to look for something that isn't really meant to be there, and in this case I did feel that too many of the adult characters lacked any development at all, though at the same time, I am very aware that my children were in no way interested whether they had strong characters or not.
The brother and sister at the centre of the story do develop reasonably well. Certainly more than enough for the progression of the story.
Descriptive - 4.5/5.0 (Excellent)
There is a lot of good, solid descriptive work here, which serves to pull the reader along the simple-but-effective plot very nicely indeed. The creative processes must have been working overtime to come up with a lot of the stuff included in the location that is Prometheus, and it is impressively done from start to finish. This, and the severe contrast between Prometheus and the town of Brewster, are executed with a high degree of competence.
Language & Grammar - 4.0/5.0 (Very Good)
For an adult reading this to a child, the language allows unbroken narrative which is easy for a wide variety of age-groups to enjoy. Word selection is considered and again, serves to support both narrative and quiet solo reading.
Plot - 4.0/5.0 (Very Good) - MINOR SPOILERS
The plot is simple but very well executed. There is a nice educational undercurrent to the whole work, which makes it the sort of book that does serve a positive purpose for the younger readers. I have seen comments which suggest there was perhaps a little too much, but really? Would you not rather have your kids reading something they find both enjoyable and educational?
Yes, it is a stereotypical kids book, where the kids outdo the adults, save everyone and get all the rewards, but I was impressed by the way the author accomplished all of this so well.
General - 4.0/5.0 (Very Good)
This is a great children's book, but if you look beyond the obvious basic science stuff, adults can enjoy this story for what it is.
A much deserved 4 stars.
I can't begin to tell you how much I love this series. The premise of two young teenage siblings saving the world becomes believable when their parents are celebrated scientist. After being separated from their parents they explain how to reason out problems using the knowledge their parents have imparted throughout their childhood. I highly recommend this book for 4th & 5th graders and adults will throughly enjoy it too!
I have already recommended it to two local schools and will pass it on to many others!
