This book surprised me! I cannot tell you what surprised me because I want it to surprise you, but the book ended up being very different than what I thought it was going to be. The book introduces us to Ben who is given a computer game to solve from his Uncle Henry. Ben just wants to impress Henry, so he vows to complete the game. Along with his 3 friends and his sister, Ben immerses himself in the game only to find out it is more than he could even imagine. The book has riddles, codes, and information throughout, and I definitely could see fans of Tombquest or 39 Clues enjoying this adventure. But, once again, this book isn’t as it seems!

I was compelled to keep reading page after page. Much like the main characters, I found the setting immersive. I can't wait to start peeling back the layers of the next volume.

I put this down and completely forgot about it for a few months. Oops!

This was a good juvenile fiction book about a multiethnic group of kids & neighbors who are drawn into something. They're not sure what at first. A boy's uncle gives him a videogame and makes a bet with him about how long it will take him to solve it. It all builds from there, and I will say that it did not go where I thought it was going to!
