Robinson Crusoe 2244 is one of those remarkable novels that can transport you to another timeand another place simply by turning its pages. I was initially drawn to thestory because it's a retelling of a classic novel, but Robinson Crusoe 2244 isso much more than a retelling. E.J. Robinson breathes new life into the classicstory that we're all familiar with. He makes it come alive in new and excitingways. Robinson Crusoe 2244 is sure to thrill fans of the originalRobinson Crusoe story as well as bring in a new generation of fans ready tofollow Robinson on his next adventure.

I was drawn to all thelittle details in this story: the way the old ways and new technologicaladvances blend together; the heartbreak that comes with first love; the literalshipwreck (but not in the way you might think); the desperation that the charactersfeel as they attempt to survive in an impossible world; the hope that risesfrom the dust of an empty world.

I hope (and am prettypositive) that readers will fall in love with Robinson the way that I did. Itwas an honor to work on such a thoughtful project and I cannot wait to knowwhat happens in the sequel.
