I picked this book up and it's one in a series. Sometimes you have to read the first book to get to know what is going on and sometimes you don't. Halfway through the book I am thinking that maybe I really needed to read the first book to comprehend this book deeper....but with that said I still am able to follow the storyline.
I am surprised that this book is at the reading level it is.....it is marked "J" for junior but the vocabulary and the plot line is way more advanced. However, a lot of the vocab, you can figure out from context clues. I found myself using the VCR strategy all the time with words in this book.
I think if you like the Lemony Snicket books or adventure books you would like this book. It is a LONG book and I have found myself at times wondering when I will be through....but then something exciting happens to get me into it again.
