39 Clues: Into the Gauntlet by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Yep, I finally finished this series. That's the one problem with series that have more than 3-4 books, it takes forever to finish the last book because you are either waiting for it to be released or just get tired of reading the same books over and over again. I have to admit that I started out reading this series and really enjoyed it, but by the end I was just reading the books to see how it ends. I didn't mind this book and it was longer than the other books which is nice for a change since I could usually read these in one day. We got to see a lot of what was going on with each person and how they were coping with why they were looking for these clues and who were they doing it for. For most of the kids unfortunately it made their parents look very bad and selfish, but that can be a hard fact of life. Of course Dan and Amy help save the day and are able to sort of bring all the teams together, at least their generation. The older generation has some work to do. Haddix does leave the book with room for a sequel to this series and I am curious to see if they continue on or leave it. If they do continue on, will they have multiple writers for each book in the series again? I was impressed that they were able to continue this story as well as they did with so many people involved. This is a great series for younger children who are just getting into reading. There is one other book coming out, The Black Book of Buried Secrets that will add onto the 39 Clues series that recently came out.
