I really enjoyed this book, but it
had a slow start. It just did not seem like it would turn into an immersive
story, but it did. By the end, it was a great book that wraps up Sabotaged. Katherine is really awkward
in this book, but it is fun to read. The books in the series are, in order, Found, Sent, Sabotaged, Torn, and Caught.

The Missing: Book 4: Torn
The
Missing: Torn, by Margaret Peterson Haddix, is a great conclusion to Sabotaged. Jonah and Katherine must
quickly recover from 1600 Roanoke Island in order to face their new situation.
They are in 1611 now and are moments before a mutiny on the Discovery, Henry Hudson's ship in the
frozen seas of the James Bay. They struggle to survive as they realize that
something is wrong. The history they learned in school is different than what
they're in. Jonah and Katherine try to save the future as they uncover the
mysterious secrets of 1611 and the Hudson Passage.

The Missing: Book 3: Sabotaged
The
Missing: Sabotaged, by Margaret Peterson, is a good book that continues the
series The Missing. The person that
has to go back in Time this time is the level-headed Andrea, or Virginia Dare,
the first English settler born in the "New World." But, as fate would
have it, Jonah, Katherine, and Andrea, along with a dog named Dare, lose the
Elucidator and have no idea where, or when, they landed. As they struggle to
survive with little food, water, or knowledge of the terrain, they discover
what happened to the lost colony of Roanoke.
This is an amazing book that will
suck you into the story. The characters have to solve problems that nobody could
predict and they ask questions that they didn't know they had. The book sets
the stage for the next book, which takes place a few seconds after this one. Sabotaged is just the perfect sequel to Sent–it also continues the story of
Jonah and Katherine. The series includes Found,
Sent, Sabotaged, Torn, and Caught.
