Oppel, Kenneth The
Boundless, 332 p. Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 2014. $17.
Language: PG (4 swears); Violence: PG (shooting); Mature Content: G.
After saving the railroad baron for whom he works, Will’s father becomes
an important figure on the railroad and is intimately involved in the
construction and launch of The Boundless - the world’s longest train.
WIll is more concerned about the circus girl who long ago stole something
from Will and there is a good chance that she is also on The Boundless.
Willis, however, surrounded by people with ulterior motives and plenty of
danger.
Its the danger and the mystery that hold the book together. The descriptions and use of the train does not always make sense and
dropped me out of the action occasionally.
