THE GADGET by Paul Zinble

what is the gadget? thats what steven wanted to know.after the london suberb that he lived in got bombed by nazis, steven decides to stay with his dad in the us. his dad is one of the many physicist that is working on the top secret project of the gadget. steven nor any of the children in the hidden town of son alamos knew exactly what the gadget was all they new is that it was a big sience experiment that could potentially end the war. on stevens first day there he meet sewa, and alexia. Sewa is a butler sort of person for stevens dad, and steven. she was more of a family member but she gets paid to cook and clean. alexia ends up being a close friend to steven and they do almost every thing together.

the story takes place in a hidden military town located in the mountains of arizona, 1945. the town and everything going on in the town is top secret so they cant let out the location which means all mail is sent to a town near by.

it is since related because of what the scientist are working on, the development of the gadget or the atomic bomb

the style that the author wrote in was okay he talked in 3rd person so i don't think the book was as good as it could have been had it been from the point of view of steven. it seemed like a quick read but at the same time it was not very exiting there is short little bites of action here and there but other wise it would go for chapter after chapter of nothing truly exiting that made me want to read more. But then at the same time the parts when there is action... well it was good action.

over all i would still recommend but i would not make put it on the top books to read list (if you have a books to read list).
