This review is from: Truth's Lair - Perils of the Dead Man's Diary (Paperback)

What a great book! I could not put it down...I HAD to find out what would happen with Bailey and her team. "Truth's Lair - Perils of the Dead Man's Diary" is full of adventure, mystery, and suspense. J. Richard Knapp brings a unique story to the table and keeps your interest long after you finish...leaving you eagerly awaiting the sequel! I appreciate that Mr. Knapp was able to tell such an exciting story and keep high interest without being age inappropriate. Finding suitable reading material for my 530 5th and 6th graders is always a challenge, so when a book meets these levels, I must recommend it. There wasn't any adult content in this book that would be questionable on a public school library shelf. The author even touched on some great learning opportunitites - from historical fiction to scientific...or is it sci-fi? Only by getting rapt up into Bailey's world will the reader understand what is going on...with twists right up until the last page.

This review is from: Truth's Lair - Perils of the Dead Man's Diary (Paperback)

An engaging, well-developed plot, even if the characters aren't sure how the pieces of the puzzle fit together, the reader gains a strong impression that the author does! The story includes a fun cast of characters under diverse settings. Knapp is able to paint a picture of the land, the feel of a horse running free beneath you, the heartbreak of losing those you love, and the camaraderie of friendship. In spite of the technological aspect of this book the character Matthew Sanders hangs on - his legacy stretches across the story and is very compelling.

This review is from: Truth's Lair - Perils of the Dead Man's Diary (Paperback)

Truth's Lair is one of those books you can't put down; there is no good place to stop! The main characters are very likable- some even lovable- and pull you into the story. This book crosses age boundaries and, though it is aimed at young adults, it is very engaging for younger and older readers. Go ahead, you can fall in love with Bailey too!
