Reviews
Gr 5-9-Jason Chaser, his brother Bug, and Sally McDuff attend the prestigious International Racing School in Hobart, Tasmania. With Jason as hover car driver, Bug as navigator, and Sally in charge of the pit, they are well on their way to success. Even so, they are surprised when they are picked to race in the Italian Run, one of the Grand Slam events that makes up the professional racing season. Intrigue and danger follow the Argonaut in its first foray into world-class competitions. Racing enthusiasts might enjoy this story from the not-so-distant future for its fast pace and detailed action. Unfortunately, the characterization and dialogue are filled with cliche after cliche, distracting readers from the plot.-Melissa Christy Buron, Epps Island Elementary, Houston, TX Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

Don't wast your money!!! We believed Full Throttle to be the 2nd book in Matthew Reilly's 'TRILOGY"!!? but it is only a summary of a section of Hover Car Racer.
My son read Hover Car Racer at High School and loved it, a fantastic story. What a disappointment to find Full Throttle and the 'NEWLY"? released Photo Finish weren't a continuation of the story just sections of the first novel!
I was very disappointed to find that my purchase turned out to be a children's book. When I searched for Matthew Reilly as an author, I found a great list of books, half of which were already in our library, but not a mention that any of them were not adult fiction. My partner LOVES Matthew Reilly and I dearly wanted to add to his collection. What a disappointment. I wouldn't mind so much if there was someone of an appropriate age and gender in my family I could give the book to, but for me it was a waste of money. I can't review the book itself as I have no intention of reading it.
