1) Mass Market Paperback Book Sons from Afar (The Tillerman Series #6) by Simon Pulse. Sons From Afar, by Cynthia Voigt was another huge success. In this particular book, the main characters are James & Sammy. James was the kind of person who wished to find out about his lost father because of his feelings in high school on how "being a dork isn´t going to get you anywhere." He believes that since all the boys his age had fathers, they were all taught how to catch a ball ever since they were little. Although James had good grades, he wants to find a sport he could play well on. For Sammy, he´s like the opposite of James. He´s very active: participating in tennis and always being full of energy. When Sammy learned that James wanted to find their father, he didn´t hesitate. He even entered a bar that says "no kids allowed" just to find his father! This was how Cynthia Voigt made this book interesting: describing the differences and problems of two brothers that can also happen in our every day lives. On every single page, there is excitement and adventure to make the reader satisfied on what he or she is reading. I have enjoyed this book, and this book will be an excellent choice for people who want to read about young adult fiction.¤

2) Mass Market Paperback Book Sons from Afar (The Tillerman Series #6) by Simon Pulse. I thought thatthis book was really good. It really held my attention and was a quick read. It wasn´t as good as Homecoming and Dicey´s Song were, but it was still really good nd definatly worth reading. It´s about Sammy and James going to find their father. I have to say, the plot is a little strange but the book itsself is still really really good. It´s one of my favorites.¤

3) Mass Market Paperback Book Sons from Afar (The Tillerman Series #6) by Simon Pulse. In another of the Tillerman series, Cynthia Voight explores the relationship between James and Sammy as each attempts to discover his inner self and who he wants to be. As the brothers search for a long missing father they grow to understand and admire each other. Although the plot bogs down in detail at times, there is enough action to keep the reader turning pages through to the finish. Not as captivating as the first two books in the series.

4) Mass Market Paperback Book Sons from Afar (The Tillerman Series #6) by Simon Pulse. I personally didn´t think that the book was all that interesting because it it gave the story away and I could predict what was going to happen. This book is about two brothers who have questions about their father. They go on this search to find the truth about who he is, and why he left them. I like the part when Sammy was giving his report for the class on Greek mythology and he told a story about how the sun God, Apollo, let his son drive the chariot with the sun across the sky. The story was iteresting to me. I liked Sammy because he wasn´t afraid of anything or anyone. I didn´t like the amount of detail that the author gave, it was too elaborate. "Seek and ye shall find." That meant a great deal to me because it told me that you can meet certain goals if you try hard enough. This book is different from others because it is more of a real life situation for teenagers. I would recommend this book to people that are interested in thorough detail. I want to know why James was so interested in their father even though he never met and knew him.¤

5) Mass Market Paperback Book Sons from Afar (The Tillerman Series #6) by Simon Pulse. I just finished reading this book and I have read all the books before it, this is just as good as the rest. Most books don´t keep my interest but these did. The Tillermans never give up they go after what they want and don´t care what others say. I reccomend this book for any one, but I do think it would be helpful to read Homecoming, Dicey´s Song, and A Solitary Blue before this one.¤
