Fascinating Chemistry -- Any Reviews?

[Pronghorn]

I am looking at Fascinating Chemistry as a possible component of my child's ninth grade chemistry education. I would love to hear from someone who has used it. Was it worthwhile? Was it enough? I am likely pairing it with Life of Fred Chemistry and/or The Great Courses Chemistry. And we may do a separate lab program.

I am reviewing at the moment. Well my 9th grader is. He likes it so far. I have spoken to people that have used it before and they said it can take anywhere from 2 months to 6 months depending on the speed of your child. I have bought Life of Fred Chemistry to go with it. I am thinking with both it will work for a credit. We are used to LofF though he's working through Economics at the moment. Plus we are using the language program.
