review 1: This is the final book in the Archer Legacy trilogy and I'm so very sad to have this wonderful adventure and mystery series end. It started with "The Billionaire's Curse" when normal 13 year-old Gerald Wilkins inherited his great aunt's fortune- and all her enemies, continued on through "The Emerald Casket" with Gerald and his friends in India trying to solve the riddle of his family's secret, and ends with "The Mask of Destiny".Gerald's arch enemy throughout the series, Mason Green, has been caught and is finally on trial. Just as the proceedings begin the man is killed by a poison dart and Gerald's DNA is on the blow gun. Yes, he has been framed. Gerald has to flee for his freedom and his friends Sam and Ruby along with him. So continues the adventure from England to Fra... morence and then to Italy and finally in Greece as they try to make sense of the clues to an ancient puzzle involving his distant ancestors. I especially liked the final part of the book that took place in Delphi, Greece since I've been there and could picture the ruins of the city and the museum there. While this series is not sci-fi it is over-the-top in improbable adventure but if you like Indiana Jones, read this wonderful series. But you need to read them in order.
review 2: An end to the grand adventure.Pros: VISUAL MOVIE MAKING. There are some great action scenes and setting in here!Cons: Timing. Sort of felt like the end just ... came out of nowhere and it was done.Though this could also be a testament to finding a book at the right time. Started reading this one before my appendicitis. Then trying to get some time to read as I was recovering (the medicine made me feel quite sick, then I was just trying to catch up at work) ... I tend to enjoy books more when I can read them and be done! less
