Quote from review of it:
QuoteAlso, there isn't many gruesome endings so parents do not need to worry about kids reading this book.
Yes, the illustration of you and your best friend as skeletons along with the elaborate description on how you are destined to forever drift through the void of space without anyone knowing TOTALLY isn't gruesome. :D
These books are funny, you can die/fail within two or three decisions. Ever read any of them?
I used to read the Goosebumps ones.
"isn't many gruesome endings"
"many" is the key word, which means there are some.
Just off of the top of my head, here are the endings I can think of in the book:
- Your tether to your spaceship is severed
- Your spaceship explodes
- You get stuck in the middle of a planet
- You get mauled to death by bears
- The one that I described
- You are stretched by the intense gravity of the black hole
- You live the rest of your life on a utopia-like planet
- You travel through time via a wormhole and head back to Earth
- You return to Earth successfully
The last one is probably the hardest ones to do, and only the last three don't involve your death.
I think I read some of them: You Are A Millionaire, Journey To The Sahara.
