Sad we did not see atticus or jake! ( ) NOTE: This is a DNF review. I just couldn't finish this book. I gave it an honest try. I read through 25% but I just could not connect with the characters. I hadn't read anything else in this series, so I don't know if that would have made any difference or not, but honestly the main character, Ian, just irritated me to know end. He came across as an irritating, spoiled and entitled brat who was used to getting everything handed to him. And the Cahills are supposed to be this super-powerful family, and yet it is run by a bunch of kids? And before the current kids, it was run by another pair of kids? One of whom is currently 13 years old? And Ian's role model is Napolean. What is that exactly? What teenager idolizes a tyrant, anyway? Even for a middle grade book, one expects historical facts to be checked and accurate, and it references all of these people that Ian is related to, and yet there is no way that in reality these people would really be related. That just bothered me. I wanted to really like this book but I couldn't find anything to connect to, anything to like about it. Even for an ARC it was written and edited well, and the idea was unique and well thought out, but I just couldn't get into it. My 12 year old loves this series, but for me, it just fell flat. I read this book for a challenge and though it's not a genre or series I've ever read before I found it quite entertaining. The story revolves around Ian Kabra who is in charge of the Cahill family empire. With his second-in-command Cara Pierce, they have it all under control until someone calling himself the Outcast, hacks into the mainframe Cahill computer and arranges a coup. After being thrown out of the mansion, the Outcast challenges Ian. He has recreated four of history’s worst tragedies, and Ian must stop them before innocent people get killed. Apparently this is a new 39 Clues series and is very popular for children in the 9-12 age group. I don't know anyone in that age group but if I did I would recommend this book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
