Should have been an episode!

This book, more than all the others save "Frozen Stiff", should have been adapted as an episode of the show. The plot, with Alex trapped into going to Paradise Valley Chemical and facing threats to her secret from all sides, rings most true to the pacing and style of the television series. Unlike several stories in the AM book series, this one keeps a sense of plausibilty through its plot, setting, and use of characters. For example, when Bobby, Vince, Danielle all start to converge on Alex and her powers, the characters come together slowly and convincingly, not just thrown into the ending as a plot device. The way Alex, Ray and Annie plan around Vince and Danielle's latest plot to catch the GC-161 kid is in the grand tradition of episodes such as "The Video Tape," and "Operation Breakout." An extra treat for the reader comes when Alex, Annie, and Ray takes him (albeit in written word) into the bowels of the plant's industrial section, an area never really shown on the show. All in all, a good Alex Mack tale.
