A Nail Biting Adventure in Space

Dr. Atkins has a job for Jack and Danny. Seems Otto Drago, a former employee at the Atkins Robot Company, is robot napping the residence of C.O.L.A.R. Since Drago is evil, he can't be up to any good. Since Jack and Danny look alike and Jack can pass for a robot, they're the perfect pair to attempt to foil Drago. But it won't be easy, and the danger is sky high. Will they be able to over come the odds and come out alive?Growing up, this was my favorite of the books about Jack and Danny, and with good reason. The plot is perfect. The action cuts between the two main characters at the worst possible moments. Plot points are timed just right, and the storyline holds together so well. It helps that you just love these characters, and any time spent in their version of the future, even if it is a little outdated 20 years later, is still fun.These books are worth tracking down and buying to enjoy time and time again. If only a publishing company would reprint them.
