Review of Checkmate in the Carpathians.

This book is a great continuing adventure of Con's. When you find out that Con and Hannah are going to Romania you know that the adventure is not going to be the same as the last two adventures. The book keeps you on the edge of your seat. Every thing is full of suspense.

Excellent

While still not as good as the first book in the series, Secret of the Mezuzah, this is a well-written adventure story that continues the theme of anti-Semitism in present-day Europe and also introduces the poverty of post-communist Romania. Despite some amazing coincidences that keep the plot tidy, the book is highly recommended for mature children and young teens.

Great Book!

This is a very well written good book. I really liked it alot. It's a good book for anyone from the ages of 10 to 14.
