Fifteen-year-old Jack has been looking forward all year long to a summer of adventure. He’s spending it on an outdoor education course, camping and sailing with his friends Lisa, Pete and Amy. When a storm shipwrecks the four of them on an island that has been off-limits for decades, they will have to use everything they have learned about survival to stay alive, and even that may not be enough. The island is home to a lost city and to dangerous beasts, and it’s not in the world they know. While the group tries to discover the way home, something monstrous is trying to force its way in from a nightmarish reality beyond our own. Jack realizes he must not only fight to survive and escape the island, but to save his own world from destruction.

Five stars! Great adventure with believable characters and what's-going-to-happen-next momentum!
By BenjFranklin
“Deep in the night, Jack awoke to the sound of the bar on the door slowly being removed. He woke Lisa and they stood up, looking about for anything to use as a weapon. The door opened and there was Ben with a fierce grin on his face and a tiny penlight in his hand.”
That’s an example of the expert quality of the writing in this novel. Author John Harten’s “Island” is not your typical marooned-on-a-deserted-island tale. You think things are going one way and they turn out to be going in a completely different direction. That’s what makes for great reading.
In 1994, Pultizer Prize Finalist Thomas Berger (“Little Big Man”) published a modern-day Robinson Crusoe story that he titled “Robert Crews.” That used to be my favorite marooned story … until I picked up “Island.”
“Island” takes you into an intricately constructed world where sometimes things aren’t what they seem to be, and sometimes where things are exactly what they seem to be – which in this book spells insurmountable problems for the band of four (teenage friends Jack, Lisa, Pete and Amy) who find themselves alone and isolated. Well, not completely alone, but I don’t want to write any spoilers.
What stands out about this story is not only the keep-the-pages-turning intrigue, but the artist-quality writing. From the beginning, I felt as if I was on the island along with the friends, and the threats and obstacles and fears and emotions they had to contend with were quite real to me.
I genuinely enjoyed “Island” and look forward to more books from John Harten. This classic adventure is destined to intrigue readers of all ages.
By the way, I read “Island” while on the beach in Avalon, New Jersey. Occasionally I’d look up from the book and out to sea and shudder and think, “No way am I ever going out there again. The sea is so powerful, and who knows where it might take me?”

Read this book!
By trappehill
I read - no, devoured - half of this book while waiting at the doctor's office, and I have to say that was the first time ever I wished the wait were longer. If you are or have a tween/teen reader, or if you are like me - an adult with a strong fondness for so-called Young Adult fiction - read this book. Great adventure, wonderful characters, lots of intrigue, many laugh-out-loud moments, and a lot to make you think. Plus excellent writing, which means a lot to me. Towards the end of the book I was feeling breathless and at first was disappointed by feeling left hanging, but then decided I would have fun with the chance to make up my own "what next" while hoping that Harten writes a sequel soon! Great read and great fun.

The world-building touches are like iceburgs in that you may only see small details ...
By greg azon szulgit
Harten delivers a solid adventure story that is about young adults, but one that I would not classify as young adult (YA) fiction. Unlike many books in the YA genre, "Island" is written with adult sensibility and makes for a compelling read. The world-building touches are like iceburgs in that you may only see small details at the surface, but you know that they betray a solid foundation wherein the author must have spent a lot of time thinking about their ramifications. If you are a hound for well-reasoned speculations in your fiction (along side good fiction), then this is a book for you.
