My Review:
I have already reviewed the first five books in this series and here is the link if you would like to read it : http://debbieloseanything.blogspot.com/2015/10/the-great-thirst-archaeological-mystery.html
These last two books are great and as exciting as the other five. The action and suspense will keep you wondering what is next.
I would definitely recommend these for middle teens and adults, I am 56 and love them. I really think you should read them in order.
I loved the characters in this series. There are characters in these books that are the villains but then they change and help the good guys. No, that statement isn't a spoiler alert, I didn't tell who.
I really enjoyed reading this series. There are some intense moments in theses stories. I think these would really make a great movie.
I am giving "The Great Thirst " part 5 and 6, five stars each.
I was cheering the crew on as they were hunting the Great Testimonies.
I was given a complementary copy from the author. These opinions are my own.
