Alex's Fourth Summary/The 39 Clues: Into The Gauntlet

The 39 Clues: Into The Gauntlet
By: Margaret Peterson Haddix

"Into The Gauntlet" is the tenth book in the 39 clues series. I think that this is one of my favorite books in the series so far because of it's main point of the book . Dan and Amy both return back to London for another clue hunt and they have to right down most things they do on their trip in another country. The clue is that they both are searching for a valuable coin that has a script on it, the only way the you can see the script is in person. The only problem that they both have is that the person that has the coin is a pet monkey called Isabel Kabra which is weird because it's a monkey and not a person. It's pretty smart on how they planned it but the guy who put the coin on the monkey is anonymous so know one knows who he is, Dan and Amy now have to find many clues in their trip. 

The type of genre for this book is a novel, it's half and half with novel and with adventure which is something I personally like in a book. What I don't like about the book is that the author gave up on some of the interesting parts in the book. What I mean by the author giving up on the interesting parts is that as soon as you get into a scene the author goes ahead and switches the mood in the scene which makes me annoyed. I have read a genre like novel/adventure and I like it, I think it's something that I can really get into and can always read again. I always enjoy each book that comes out in the series because of it's mysterious clues and stories and I would recommend it to someone. I'm very excited to see if I can be able to read the 11th book in the series and I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

  1. A novel isn't a type of genre. I think you mean fiction, or more specifically adventure fiction. Let me know if you need more help clarifying genres.
