review 1: This book was really good. It was about this boy name zac and on day him and his grandpa where on there way to a group meeting and his graFndpa was attacked and they stole his poems and diarys. On the way to the hospital he ends up dying. So zacs grandpa had a bunch of stuff about a lost king and he was related to him. So he was out to get the gold that the lost king had lost. His Uncle Fedelis was out to try to steal the map and the diaries that told you where to go so that he can have the gold. Zac gets adopted and after that people where trying to set him up and one day somebody tried to attack zak and put a cell phone in his pocket and when he got home the cops where waiting on zac. He went to the gloucester jouvenile jail. Soon after that he was visiting his g... morerandpas grave and soon after that someone dug him up, and the cops came to zac and arrested him for vandalism. After that they sentenced zac to 180 hrs of community service in a town in africa. When he got there he was steadily trying to find the lost treasures of his ancestor. And if you wanna know if he found it or not you gotta read the door of no return.
review 2: Seemed slightly unbelievable how things just happened to fall out nicely for our hero, but I'm sure I'm a few years over the intended target reader, which would make a difference to the believability. Also, I am unbelievably annoyed by text-talk, even when used in text messages. Grammar exists for a reason. A good story and a good book nonetheless. I was happy to see it feature a country which doesn't tend to get much exposure in the books I normally read. less

Yuck...long winded and pedantic. The premise was good but the writing just didn't give it life.

Good cover and good concept, but the author's dialogue-driven style is not for me.
