Book Talk: The Thirty Nine Clues… the Maze of Bones

By: Seth Book

My name is Seth and my book is called The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordan.

Summary: This book is about two kids named Amy and Dan Cahill whose parents died and they live with their wealthy grandmother Grace in her mansion. Everything is fine until she passes away as well. All of the Cahill family is brought to Grace’s mansion for her lawyer to explain her will. The lawyer says that there are two options: One is to take 1 million dollars and leave, or two is to get the first clue of thirty nine to make you the most powerful human being in all of history. Which one would you choose?

Hook: Imagine, your parents die and you leave with your grandmother and then she passes away. Then you are forced to live with your weird aunt. Your grandmother leaves a will for you for 1 million dollars. Or one clue to thirty nine more clues, that is, to be the most powerful human being in history. Hard decision am I right? Well Dan and Amy Cahill will have to make it.

I would recommend this book to people ages 10 to 13. I would also recommend this book to people who like suspense, action, adventure and mystery.

The Maze of Bones is available in the school library, Kidsbooks, Chapters and Book Warehouse.
