Customer Reviews

It's the best William Sleator book yet.

I've read many of Sleator's books and I have never been dissapointed with any of them. Strange Attractors is so far the greatest, and I enjoyed it even more than Interstellar Pig.

It was a Fabulous book-kept me busy for hours

I absolutely LOVED this book!! Unfortunately, I cannnot find ANY store that caarries it!

Max is a true adventurer!

The first time I read William Sleator's book, "Strange Attractors" I was in the 6th grade. Being an avid reader it still astounds me today that this book had such impact on me, and was and is one of the best books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. Sleator is a highly ingenious author. This book had a profound affect on my reading years as a youth. Today I am a freshman in college, and having found my childhood treasure again hope to read it and re-read it again and again in the hopes that it will somehow "transport me back in time" to how I felt the first time I read this masterpiece!!.

A great book

I know William Sleators books are meant for younger readers but even older readers should love them as well! They are fun and are engrossing. I know I have read Strange Attractors more than a few times and have loved it every time, I would truly consider it one of my favorites along with The Boy Who Reversed Himself. It poses interesting questions that make you think even when you are done reading.

It very excitingand you never know what Max will learn next!

I think this book is really great. With all this scientific things combined with romance and emotion and time travel too, it really gets you going! Definatly for kids and teens, this book is a great sci-fi that you don't want to miss
