Although exciting and filled with adventure, I didn't like the idea that the adults are constantly withholding information from the select kids. There is a lot less historical information in this series so far compared to Rick Riodan's Percy Jackson series or 39 clues. Maybe Book 2 will go there.
I can see the parallells to Percy Jackson. It`s not as good but I think it`s still an entertaining book
I was expecting something more like Percy Jackson, but I just ended up being disappointed. I didn't even ended up finishing it. Ugh.... It was really disappointing for me.

The first time I saw this book was during the book signing and book launch at the National Bookstore and I just decided to drop by and have my book signed. That was the first time ever and I am so glad I met this awesome author.
The book is like a Percy Jackson series because of the adventures Jack had. I can say that this kind of book is one of the genre I enjoyed reading. I like how the book was written. I like the strong friendship and leadership of the characters. I like the flow of the story and everything it is composed of. I must admit that I got confused at first with their real purpose because of the things that happened but then as I kept reading the book until I've got to know everything.
Honestly Jack (the main character) is still a mysterious one to me so are the other characters. Where did they come from before being one of the team. What happened to their family and who really is the alliance? Who tells the truth and what is the real agenda? So many questions left unanswered and I am curious to know more about it. The more I read the more I don't want to stop. I am honestly excited to read the second book, I am curious what kind of adventure it will bring.
I've heard things about this book like, "Percy Jackson meets Indiana Jones", but I don't know much about Indiana Jones and this is more like Percy Jackson to me. such an enjoyable and fun book to read.
The book cover? It's pretty awesome honestly, I fell in love with it right away. It's just so cool and I like the embossed like font in the front cover. Then... I was curious with the title which pushed me more to buy and read the book. Seven Wonders.. does this mean seven books too? I think yes.
PS: I really can't wait for the next book I need to find time to read.

This book has been on my shelf for a long time and I finally picked it up because I wanted something light and easy to read.
I thought the premise of this was cute but I wasn't crazy about the execution. The pacing seemed a little off, so although it was very action packed, some things seemed to drag on for too long, while other things I really wished had been developed further. On one hand this felt a little info-dumpey, but I also feel like we never really grasped what was going on, and new information and abilities kept coming out of no where. I appreciate the little clues and codes in the book, but I found them to be a little too convenient. Their guesses and answers shouldn't have alway been right the first time. This was enjoyable and a quick read, but nothing special.

I think that this book was a good book. A very good book. If I were more interested in fantasy/adventure stories, than I would have probably rated this book five- stars, because it was really good. But I'm more interested in other genres. In general, this book is a very good book, and I recommend it to all readers.
LOVED IT! I felt this exact same feeling with Percy Jackson. The adventure, the constant thrill; ALWAYS kept me on my toes! Thankfully, I didn't cry, but it is a CLIFF HANGER!!!
