Lots of action and derringdo that young boys will like reading about. The story pulls you in but best of all Roland Smith adds a history lesson, this time it is the Knights Templar and the Holy Grail. Fun series, which I am glad I read before I will sit down to read with my grandson, there are some very thoughtful topics that I hope to have open for discussion such as diet, learning, following a project, working with others and family and family values. With the nation reeling from the recent terrorist attacks, Q and Angela leave Chicago and arrive in San Francisco. Their parents are determined to continue the Match tour but for safety's sake, they have decided to send Q and Angela to boarding school. Not happy at the thought of being taken off the trail of the ghost cell, Q and Angela race against time with Boone and the SOS team to find Number One, the leader of the world's most feared terrorist organization. It's the final showdown. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

This is the final installment of the series-long story, the kind of series that you really need to start from the beginning. In some ways, it's a satisfying conclusion to the story, as answers are provided, some more surprising than others. Some pieces fell into place that made the identity of Number One fairly obvious to me and, in fact, made me realize maybe I should have guessed it sooner. But I didn't, and I doubt most of the kids in the target age group would either, which makes for an exciting story.
There were some things that happened that I didn't really think made much sense or weren't necessary. And the supernatural element that developed throughout the series did not have a satisfactory explanation for my preference. By that I mean that it was fully explained, but the root of the supernatural abilities didn't really make sense. I can't explain very well without spoiling it, but it just sort of seemed like the author(s) didn't put as much thought into the backstory as they should have. However, since the series was a solid 4 stars for me all throughout until this book, which was only half a star less than that, I think it's well worth a read for anyone who is at all interested in the genre or series synopsis. I'm glad I read this series, though I doubt I'll re-read it. ( )
