If you want a great book with a lot of adventure and just enough mystery to make it intense and exciting, “The Maze of Bones” is the book for you. Its about two kids named Amy and Dan who belong to one of the most important and well known families in the whole world. They find this out at their grandmother’s funeral when the mystery begins. Then all of a sudden, they are in a race to go all around the world, competing against their cousins to see who can get to the end of the 39 clues first. Soon after the race begins, they find out (the hard way!) how dangerous this really is, and what else they might have to go through. This book carries you through lots of different countries, and each country holds it’s own exciting clue that leads everyone closer to the end of the race. I loved this book, and think other people will too, the only complaint about it is that it starts a little slow. Also, if you liked this book, you should read the second book and third book too. They are just as amazing as the first!
