I read these books as a young teenager and can remember eagerly waiting for my school library to get each book in the series. (Back then I didn't realise you could actually buy books in a shop).
I've been living in the UK for 6 years and had been waiting for all of them to be available here for ages. I gave up about two years ago and have now realised that they finally are here and I'm going to read and re-read these books because they never get old - you still laugh, cry and in some parts even bite your nails hoping that what you know is going to happen won't actually happen this time around.
These books are so relatable, so believable and extremely entertaining.
Read them, you won't regret it.

I have never been so affected by a series of books before. Usually i read fantasy books, and in fact i chose the book because of the misleading description on the back about teenagers going to hell. But it was the best mistake i ever made. I have read the whole series 3 times, and am in the process of reading them a fourth time.
While the book starts off in the lives of a normal teenage girl, it doesnt take long for the harsh and relentless shocks of Ellie's life to come into play. As the series goes on, you will not be able to believe the things they have to cope with. It got to a point where my eyes were red from crying, and i felt that Ellie was either ME, or my best friend.
This first book in the series has some great moments (e.g. the bulldozer, and the bridge) but also a very realistic romantic undertone. One of the best things about this book is how easily i could relate each character to one person in my group of friends. They fitted perfectly. Of course this made any death hit me even harder, and every fight felt real. If you like relentless excitement, mixed with relentless grief, fear and love. You will love this book. But if you also love humour, you wont be left dry. There is one point, in the third book, when the group is cornered by soldiers, and as they are lined up Kevin farts. I havent laughed so hard at a book in my life. It brightened a very dark moment. READ IT!

I read these whilst on holiday in Australia as recommended by my cousin, and couldn't stop until I had finished all seven.
They are absolutely gripping and some of the best books I have read. My relatives complained I didn't join in all the conversations, and was really quiet on the journey home!Why aren't they available in England or advertised - I am sure they would sell well. Laura (age 13)

This is a fantastic series of books. Initially written for young adults i stumbled across this series in my 20s and found the books to be among the most engrossing I had ever read. The characters are well explored with various complex personalities. I laughed and cried. John Marsden takes a very interesting idea (war breaking out in Australia while a group of teenagers are on a camping trip) and writes it incredibly well.
A book everyone should read September 10, 2003

This book is so thought-provoking. I read it in my early teens and I have continued to go back to it and read it again and again. Sent to me by my aunt in australia, as many of my books were, it begs the question why many of these great books i cannot find in britain. I really love this book. It's great. I don't read traditional books, don't enjoy poetry etc. But this, is just amazing.
