I definitely liked this one better than the previous one. While unlike the first two books this one didn’t have a true mystery the kids were racing to solve but I loved the growth and expansion you get of each of them. There were still moments I didn’t expect and a few where my heart was racing a bit. It did feel as if it dragged on a bit in the beginning, these books are long, almost, I feel, unnecessarily. Overall enjoyed it.
