Make me dream...
I'm a great fan of the X-Files and I can say that with Barjavel's books, especially "The immortals" and "The ice people" I feel I find again the same things. I dream, in few words. I'm French and I have read all Barjavel's books, and I can say now: happy to be French! I wish people from other countries can have the chance to read his books...

Absorbing and thought-provoking
I read this young adult sci-fi/fantasy/romance while studying abroad in France recently, and enjoyed it immensely.

Barjavel's Best!!
I have read quite a few books by Barjavel by now and this was my favorite. Most of his books are SCI-FI type, this was his only real "novel". It takes place during the war at a boarding school for boys. The character development in this book far surpasses his other works. I read this in French, and now I wish I could find it in English for my friends.
