This was a quite of a cool book, because I had heard that it was a good series. Too bad that I got the third one of the series , because I always like to start with the first one. I really liked it along with my PLAYAWAY. It really helped me understand it in the beginning, because it gets boring until the climax. My favorite part in the book was when Allistar picks the kids up in the limo and he is on their side. I like this book because it has adventures in the book and that is the books that I always want to read. The happy part in the book was when Allistar came on the kids' side. The sad parts in the story or book were, when the Cobras' betrayed the Cahills' and when Allistar had died at the end. The part that really bothers me sometimes is that it leaves you hanging in a series because you want to hear the end of the book. i was when Allistar died and people had reported it and everything. It was a long time since he had died and people went in his house to go through his belongings. The kids went in there and saw a light on in the bathroom and his lucky hat was on the bed, the same one as the one died in.
