This is a fantastic book very similar to Lemony Snikket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events", where gifted children have to save themselves (and in this case, also the world...). It combines a nial biting plot with clever puzzles that keeps the reader guessing as to what will happen next....

It's impossible to hate the characters, and impossible to choose your favorite.
