The Maze of Bones is the first novel of The 39 Clues series, written by Rick Riordan and published Septemby Scholastic. The Maze of Bones (The 39 Clues, #1), Rick Riordan However, I've read many young readers books that are still extremely well written and appealing to adults as well as kids, so this simply doesn't pass the grade. It is certainly written for a kid's mentality. The only credit I'll give this book at all is that it seems my students, for the most part, really liked it. This book is nothing more than a horrifically written kids' version of the National Treasure films.
These are some of the shallowest, most meaningless characters I have ever read about. Riordan and Scholastic, the publishers, have done an amazing job at pumping out a mass-marketed piece of crap. This clue leads them on a wild adventure to many mysterious locations teeming with danger in an attempt to beat their rival relatives to the finish line.Īnd this book had me thinking about its finish line the whole time. Amy and Dan reluctantly accept the clue, forgoing the million dollars, along with most of their relatives. They are offered the choice of either one million dollars or a clue to a riddle that the fate of the world depends on the Cahills solving. After the funeral they are all presented with a strange challenge from Grace given through her lawyer. However, that all changes when they get summoned to their mega-rich grandma Grace's funeral, along with the rest of the extended Cahill family.
That's because the only place worth reading this book is while you've got a few minutes of privacy on the porcelain throne.Īmy and Dan Cahill are typical squabbling siblings who believe one another are the most annoying brother and sister in the world. Book one of The 39 Clues: The Maze of Bones, by author Rick Riordan, is an exciting young readers adventure book that will leave you sitting on the edge of your seat your toilet seat.
