We were unhappily surprised to learn about this book when a well-meaning relative gave it to our 9 year old son for Christmas. The book jacket gave no indication of the rough content. Presumably, the teleportation angle looked appealing to the purchaser.Fortunately, our son became disturbed by the language in the book, and stopped reading before he got to the homosexual rape in the first few pages. When we took a closer look at the sexual content and the foul language, we took the book from his possession. I am appalled that this book would be sold... for youngsters. The violence and sexual content are offensive and the constant stream of foul language is vulgar and disrespectful.I cannot imagine any circumstance in which we would accept this book into our home, no matter what age our children have attained. There are better sources of inspiration to help us overcome hardship in life which don't require disrespecting fathers, young readers or God.
