The 39 Clues – The Maze of Bones, by Rick Riordin
Dan and Amy are part of the Cahill family, the most powerful family in the world. When their beloved Grandma Grace dies, in her will each family member will get a million dollars or…The first of 39 clues to becoming the most powerful person in the world.
I liked this book because it has information about different famous people that are from history. It also has great settings, the first book being mainly in France and Paris. The book also has things you can relate to, such as beloved ones dying, not liking or having arguments with family. This book is quite similar to the TV programmes Survivor and the Amazing Race (with bombs and fire). It’s like The Amazing Race because it’s a big race to the finish and Survivor because Dan and Amy started with nothing and end up with…
There are more books in the series to back up the first book. What’s unusual about this series is that each book is written by a different authors these are Rick Riordan, Gordan Korman, Peter Lerangis and Jude Watson. The book also comes with cards and an online race activity (http://www.the39clues.com/), so the more you read the further in the online game you can go. The first finisher wins $10,000 in prizes. I recommend this book to people that like adventure or the programme Amazing Race.
