John Marsden, Tommorow, When The War Began

'Tomorrow When the War Began' by John Marsden is an enticing book for the teenage reader. It is a very addictive book, which makes it very difficult to put the book down. When I was told I had to read 'Tomorrow When the War Began' I had a very different idea about what the book would be about. The book is not directly about war, it is about how 8 teenagers respond to the war. It is an adventure story with lots of action, romance and fighting for their families. It is well written novel. There are four main things that set this novel apart from others. These include the powerful characterisation, the situation, the large areas left to the readers imagination, the technical excellence of the writer. I highly recommend this book to any person that likes action books and with a little bit of romance.

This book is awesome, i like everything about it from the plot to the characters (esp. Lee). There is nothing i dislike about the book except the fact that it's quite addictive :). John Marsden is the ultimate author and i pray that he continues to write such intriguing novels!

Just a fantastic series!! My partner and I are reading through all the books, his on book 1 while I'm on book 2.

Extremely difficult to put the book down!! very addictive :)

Amazing books! Truly amazing. Marsden is a fantastic author and out of all of his work this series truly is my favourite. I treasure them more then Harry Potter and the Twilight series. Which says a fair amount...

John Marsden, Tommorow, When The War Began - John Marsden's book is one of the best I've ever read. War, excitement, a bit of romance... you can't ask for much more!!!! Only for those who aren't afraid to face their fears.

In John Marsden's Tommorow, When The War Began, a group of teenagers go camping in the australian bush and return to their homes to discover that they have been invaded, their parents held prisoner and a huge amount of land captured by the enemy. The teenagers reluctantly at first fight back, gaining confidence and expertise. Packed with adventure, beautiful scenery and realistic moral debate.

John Marsden's Tommorow, When The War Began is a fantastic book I remember grabbing the torch and hiding under the covers long after midnight trying to get each book finished and being really tired the next day for school.

"When The War Began" is a brilliant book. Imagine an action thriller so powerful it makes your hairs stand on end. Then imagine a tear-jerking story and a romance novel - did you come up with three seperate books? Well Tommorrow when the war began contains all these things and is the best book, apart from The Dead Of The Night, that I have ever read.

Powerful, heart-wrenching and a beautiful story about growing up and discovering who you are. The tale of seven teenagers struggle for survival, but not many reaching their goal. You have got to read this!

The book was excellent, a great read. i read all seven books at once and they need to be read all at once, to get the full impact but that doesn't mean they are not good on their own.
