I didn't like this as much as the previous books in the series. Usually it's a bit difficult to figure out who's the schemer, but in this book it was obvious from the beginning. There just wasn't as much excitement and the story line seemed unrealistic and contrived.

I was rather disappointed.

This is book five of the Children of the Lamp series. This latest adventure has the djinn twins are sent to recover rare artifacts in the Amazon. They must make some difficult decisions that could cause a release of a mystical power to reappear. For those who enjoy fantasy this offers turns and twists with lots of magic, spells and surprises. Some of the language is higher level and the storyline and vocabulary would attract those with strong comprehension skills.
