### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Pace picks up considerably
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2012*

I liked this chapter in the 39 Clues saga more than the previous one. It has all the features that make this series so enjoyable - likeable protagonists, breakneck pacing, interesting educational material tightly woven into the plot, global settings, and mystery and intrigue. This outing had all that and some more.After an absence of several books we get the return of the Janus branch representative, Jonah Wizard. Here he is portrayed with a certain amount of depth. Previously he was a very talented but completely self absorbed, uncaring jerk but now we get a glimpse of some compassion and self doubt. Besides Jonah himself we get some background on his father and for the first time his mother Cora, the head of the Janus branch, makes an appearance in these books.For the first time in the series Amy and Dan become separated and have to cope without the other's support. As might be expected, this results in some welcome growth especially in Dan.The ongoing mystery of Nellie and whom she is working for gets some more play here.Finally, the setting of this book, China, is used in masterful fashion by author Korman. Korman seems to have a talent for researching his locales and working them into his books effectively. His Everest climax was very effective and exciting.Highly recommended. If you liked the previous books you'll like this one.

    Great Addition to this series
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2010*

I am throughly enjoying the 39 Clues book series. While some books have been easier than others for the characters to figure out the clues this is indeed one of the more challenging of the seires for Dan and Amy. Even thought it has only been a few months of time in the story to get to this point I am enjoying how the characters are developing and I eagerly await the next book.My wife is a children's librarian and it was she who got me turned on to this series by having use listen to the first two or 3 on CD while traveling. I have enjoyed the CD versions but kept up with the series by puchasing the book when it comes out and then donating it to the library once I have completed it.Being an adult reader of Youth fiction is an interesting spot and I have found it to be quite enjoyable. My wife also enjoys it as she then uses my enjoyment as a reference for here readers of the series.

    It's gonna be way more than 39 books to get 39 clues.
  

*by B***A on Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2015*

The 39 clues.  Wait, i'm on book 8 and i've covered what number clue in this book?This is simply the way comic books work.  You tell a whole story arc and with each published book, you have all ready enticed the reader to want the next book in the series.  I don't think we've uncovered 8 clues by this 8th book.  In fact, i have the first 7 and i know by purchase history that you have to buy a whole different series just to get to clue number 12, the name of that series is completely different and its still part of the same series.  I'm about to give up because this series is taking a LOOOOONG TIME!Its also got multiple authors helping write it.  It's a good thing that most of them seem to have the same writing style or it could be disaster.  The only other disaster i've seen in this series.  That they flashback to things that for my taste, bore me.  It's so far ahead of the storyline, that you'll have to go back to the book just to remember clearly what happened in a previous book, to coincide with a current book.That means you can't sell your old books to help buy the new book.  You may need it to reference in the future of the storyline.
