    About this audiobook

    Filled with pulse-pounding action and cryptic codes, The Golden Vendetta is the third engrossing book in bestselling author Tony Abbott's cloak-and-dagger series for young readers. Fans of Rick Riordan and Ridley Pearson will love this adventurous series.

    It's been two months since the Kaplan family hunted down the Serpens relic, but when the evil Galina Krause suddenly and violently reappears, Wade, Darrell, Lily, and Becca have no choice but to face her again. Now they must race to find an artifact said to be crafted by Leonardo da Vinci himself—perhaps the strangest Guardian of all. Along the way, they uncover another layer to Galina's sinister endgame . . . and there might not be enough time to stop it.

      I don't know how Tony Abbott conceives of such complex, interconnected clues and bits of the impossible PLUS meshes them with history. I adore that aspect of this series.Once more the story explores the far reaches of the globe, taking advantage of modern technology and transportation to solve ancient clues. The cost is high, however. As much as they enjoy the excitement, Golden Vendetta finds our characters wearying (in different levels and for different reasons) of the adventure. If not for the fact that the stakes have jumped to an even higher level than ever before, who could say how many of them would continue?Nevertheless, the gaps between the books is highly frustrating to me as a reader. I find myself left with unanswered questions about the adventures casually referenced but not actually included in the books. For example, we learn that they first met an assassin while attempting to recover XXX relic. Wait...I missed something! I'm sorry to admit that I won't be reading any more of this series.
