Book Review: The Medusa Plot


Review:  #371
Title:  The Medusa Plot
Series:  Cahills vs. Vespers - 1st book
Author:  Gordon Korman
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  The beginning of the next story arc in The 39 Clues series, does it deliver?  If you liked the previous books, then you’ll probably like this one as well.  What is hard to stomach though is the fact that in all the previous books, they made the Cahills to be so powerful, with so many resources, that no one could possibly compete with them.  What happens in this book?  A new adversary known as the Vespers so easily trumps over them.  These Vespers just suddenly make an appearance, after eleven books of their absence, even though they’re so powerful.  Anyway, events in the book are interesting enough, albeit stretches the reality with the heist and everything.  The ‘illustrations’ don’t really add to the story, particularly the photos with the characters posed in a cheesy way and looks tacked on.
Rating:  6/10
