What a fine example of adventure writing for young teens. It follows young Indiana Jones adventure in Turkey before the brake out of the first world war. It involves secret societies and long forgotten myths in the underground cities of Capadócia. What a fun and interesting read. Can't wait for my daughter to grow up and enjoy these books.
A fun read for Indiana Jones fans. For younger readers, it will encourage a love of adventure and archaeology. Plus points for the hidden message that reading and study is fun and useful.
