Blurb
When a mysterious book by the legendary writer Jules Verne falls into the hands of three unlikely friends, it sets off a treasure hunt like no other—get ready for a modern-day reimagining of The Goonies!
Owen Godfrey is spending his summer in Paris studying science fiction writer Jules Verne, the brilliant mind behind Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in Eighty Days. When Owen and his new friends find what appears to be a dusty copy of Verne’s collected works in an old bookshop, they’re intrigued by the hidden codes written inside. As one clue leads to another, the trio gets swept up in an epic treasure hunt spanning the city—from the depths of the catacombs to the top of the Eiffel Tower, and by way of skateboard, boat, car, and even a hot air balloon! But they quickly realize they’re not the only ones searching for the hidden riches, and that there are others who will stop at nothing to get to them first. This fast-paced larger-than-life adventure is filled with action, high stakes, and three friends who are dead set on cracking the Jules Verne mystery.
My Opinion
The Jules Verne Prophecy by Larry Schwarz & Iva Marie Palmer is a wonderful adventure fiction. I have read about Jules Verne and, it was only because of him I chose to review the book. The story jumps from one to another and, you will feel glued to the book. For our young readers, the book is going to excite them. All the adventure and excitement takes a leap toward the climax and the book comes to an amazing end. The characters are lovable and young readers can easily relate with them.
Definitely 4 stars for the book. Thanks to TBR and Beyond Tours for providing me with an opportunity to read and review the book.
