Review Praise for TombQuest Book 1: Book of the Dead:"Like a preteen Indiana Jones and Lara Croft, Alex and Ren make a compelling duo, and Northrop balances pathos and action effectively to engage readers. Funny and smart, Alex and Ren are excellent companions for this fast-paced and scorpion-filled ride."-- Kirkus Reviews"A thrilling adventure rich in Egyptian mythology and magic... Sure to be a blockbuster." -- Booklist"Nonstop action... reluctant readers will enjoy the fast-paced story and the accompanying interactive computer game, and they will look forward to future installments." -- Voice of Youth Advocates"The plot moves quickly and will appeal to reluctant readers looking for adventure [and] danger." -- School Library Journal Read more About the Author Michael Northrop is the New York Times bestselling author of TombQuest, an epic book and game adventure series featuring the magic of ancient Egypt.

Egyptian mythology series
Readers of the 39 Clues, Infinity Ring and Kane Chronicles will enjoy Northrops series as well. Kids who want to read the mythology based series like Riordan's works, but can't yet handle books of that length will enjoy TombQuest immensely and can work their way to others later. There is an online game to accompany the book series. Best for grades 4-6.
