THURSDAY: Eureka: The Substitution Method by Cris Ramsay

Summary
It starts so subtly. It looks like minor pranks - plants missing, cars swapped. Then people go missing and show up miles from where they started. And then buildings start showing up in Eureka - houses and businesses full of clueless civilians from other states who really shouldn't see all that Eureka has to hide.


Sheriff Carter and the gang have to track down the missing Eureka buildings - and residents - before any of their secrets get out. And he needs to track down the source of the substitutions and put a stop to it before the missing scientists and their secrets are the least of their concerns.


Review
Fun story, reflects the characters and "voices" of the TV show. Some reference to the TV series. Some one who has never watched the show might be too lost to enjoy the story, but regular viewers, even if they haven't seen the specific shows referenced, should keep up just fine. My favorite moments take place around the Jo/Zane relationship (they are my favorite characters in the show)


4 out of 5 stars


Recommended for: Fans of the show, science fiction fans with familiarity with the show


Cautions: none. Might be some language in the book, but I didn't note it.
