I just finished this book by John A. Heldt, and I can honestly saw that I really enjoyed it. The mine is a YA book written around the story of college student Joel Smith. The book is also part of a series (The Northwest Passage) which currently has 5 books.
Basic Plot:
While on a trip to Yellowstone days before graduation, Joel enters an abandoned mine and emerges in 1941. Quickly realizing that he has no way to return to the present, Joel restarts his life; when an opportunity comes for him to return to his old life, Joel must make a decision on how to pursue the rest of his life.
My thoughts:
Overall, I really enjoyed this book; even despite Joel's arrogance, he was a really likable character. I loved the writing style of the book and I always love books that are set in the early 1900's. I am excited to read the rest of the series and hope that they are as good as the first book! I would recommend this book to anybody who likes fiction and si-fi books!
