The Doomsday Boxby Herbie Brennan The Doomsday Box By Herbie Brennan is a much much more interesting novel compared to The Shadow Project. The biggest reason that it is better than The Shadow Project is because the plot mainly revolves around time travel. The plot is about four teens trying to stop the world from being engulfed by a plague brought back from the past called the 'Black Death' the black death is a highly deadly and infectious disease that killed off 25 million people. The Doomsday box is better than The Shadow Project in my opinion because it deals with time travel which interests me a lot. The Doomsday Box also talks about the Philadelphia Project which was a famous experiment that went wrong. The experiment tried to create a completely undetectable ship. The ship supposedly created a rip in space-time which caused some of the crew members to become infused with the ship's walls. In the book's timeline the Philadelphia Project was further investigated to try and make a time machine/portal. This experiment also gets shut down but years later the area is reopened and the portal activated. When it was activated a box came out which held samples for the Black Death which are released then later the children from the Shadow Project have to go back in time to stop the box from ever coming to the future. With all of this in mind the book should be read by ages 10-17 because there are almost no mature topics and The Doomsday Box contains time traveling which is a very in-depth topic. Jennica MundenAdventureCritical analysis: This is a story about a theory of time travel wherein one can change the future, teenage astral projection, and the classical mess the CIA always seems to end up in when exploiting new means and strange things.Opinions: Despite the attempt at seriousness, this is an unrealistic and mundane story with a few odd twists, and some kids thrown in. It turns a professional undercover agency into a teen hook-up program.Summary: In the 1940s, the CIA created a program to research time travel. But, as one can guess, things go wrong when an undercover agent, code name Cobra, exploits the time-travel operation to send the black plague into the twenty-first century. The supernatural teen spies of the Shadow Project are recruited to go back in time to Cold War-era Russia and prevent this devastating chain of events from occurring.
