The Viper's Nest (The 39 Clues, Book 7) (7)

This is more of the same which is not to say anything negative. The action is nonstop, the characters are likeable and well written, the educational aspects are both front and center but at the same time, as strange as it sounds, unobtrusive. The only concern a reader who has gotten this far might have is that it all seems formulaic by now. Another book, another country, some new fictional characters, some old historical ones, and another clue. The plot advances in that Dan and Amy find out what readers probably have suspected all along. At this point the reader has to have faith that the payoff will be worth the investment to date. Will the big reveal at the end show that all these books in the middle were relevant to the plot in important ways? Or are they just padding out the series? I'm betting on the former but if the latter it's very entertaining padding. Bring on the next one.

I'm posting this review for my son Jack, an avid fan of the 39 Clues series. He blasted through each of these books in no time. Hard to put down. The suspense is thrilling! Difficult to guess who the back-stabbers are! This is a great story for kids. The journey deepens as they get closer to the seventh clue and the mystery of how their parents died. Anxiously awaiting the delivery of Book 9! If you like this series you might also like Fablehaven and Percy Jackson. Pre-ordering through Amazon has been a wonderful experience.

I know other reviewers have given this series a very low rating. They could be written better but you have to remember the age group that these are written for. I think the series is a great buy since it does get my daughter to read.

In the seventh book of the 39 clue series Amy and Dan Cahill are in South Africa. This series aimed at teen aged readers is also fun and light reading for the older set. This time the teen aged sleuths are dealing with a secret message, A Tomas stronghold and the strategies of a long dead warrior. The volume also includes 6 game cards for those playing the on-line game.

I love this series! I strongly recommend The 39 Clues for third and fourth graders for this series amazing suspense,humor, And the amazing places they go to. Starting reading the series now with book 1,The Maze of Bones.

I love this book and all the others in the 39 Clues series. The book is great for kids 4th grade and up and fun for parents too. Join Amy and Dan Cahill on a quest to find 39 clues and find the ultimate power of the world. This is a great book!

The book was in great condition. Love this series.

I loved this book as I did all the other 39 clues books. I think the books have AMAZING cliff hangers, especially at the end of the book. I can't believe Amy and Dan think what they think at the end of the book. (Don't want to be a spoiler)

Simple yet enthralling. The story continues in its next exciting adventure whilst teasing the reader with the just as thrilling larger story arc of the family history and the race for the 39 clues.

My husband had bought me the boxed set of The Clue Hunt, but they were paper pack and no cards. I've been trying to get the hard cover ones so I have the cards. It's been slow going since the Game has been done for so long, but I'm getting there ! Thank you !!!

awesome

Great story where you can easily lose yourself in the plot. Read on and enjoy the breathtaking excitement, which multiplies with each turning page. Brilliant!

Sent to grandchild and was enjoyed
