4.0 out of 5 stars excellent book but pretty dark themes for a kid, Mar 25 2004

By	Keneri "merri1000" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mummy The Will And The Crypt (Paperback)

I loved this entire series when I was a kid and read them all repeatedly. There is no question that the author is talented... the plots are facinating and the characters are vivid and sympathetic. This series is sure to catch the imagination of any child that is interested in mystery or the supernatural.

One caveat, however: these books are pretty dark. There's a lot of evil and anger portrayed, and I'm not sure if that's the sort of thing a child should be dwelling on. The protagonists are healthy role models and their intentions are good, but the book paints a pretty dark and scary picture of the rest of the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book, Nov 29 2001

By	Sarah (Jackson, MS) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mummy The Will And The Crypt (Paperback)

I read this book when I was in third grade. Here I am, about to go to law school, and I still remember the details. The story keeps you hanging on the whole length of the book. I would recommend this book for anyone who loves a good mystery, loves to be held in suspense, and who can handle staying up late, because you won't want to put it down.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amy's View: The Mummy, the Will & the Crypt, Jun 5 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Mummy The Will And The Crypt (Paperback)

I liked this book very much because I like reading mysteries. What made it good? First, it kept my interest because it was very exciting. I was very eager to know what happened next. I liked learning about the characters. Their lives were very exciting. Finally, the last 3 chapters were very freaky! Johnny, the main character, was sneaking into the Glomus mansion and he kept hearing weird noises. I would recommend this book to any kids over 7 years of age.

4.0 out of 5 stars Too convincing for an impressionable kid
I read this book when I was about 9 years old and I am still scarred ten years later. It isn't a bad book - it's extremely convincing and well plotted. Read more
