Good books! Action packed! Kept your interest. I read the whole 8 books and did not think they were scary at all. Reminds me alot of indiana jones --you know the movies that were such a big hit. I think that kids would find these books interesting and fast moving. The nice thing is that the books on a whole are not really long and you can read them thru pretty quick---the books end just as quickly as they start. Overall-- a very enjoyable read. I plan to have my niece read them and what she thinks i will let you know. All i know is that i truly enjoyed them. UPDATE on 4/13/09: My Mom read the first book in this set. She was concerned about them being to "scarry" for her grand daughter who is 11. My Mom could not put the book down. She did say that some of the writting (words) are a little to hard to understand for that age group but she LOVED it. My niece just read it and she said she liked all the action in the book.Read full review
Excellent youth series adventure books. I bought these for my 9 year old, and he has really enjoyed them. As an adult, I have also read all of them so I would know what they were like. Frank Peretti spins a good tale no matter what age he is targeting. Many of these books remind me of the Indiana Jones movies. There is a strong background element of Christianity/ moral values taught in these books. There are also AR (Accelerated Reader) tests available through local schools to gain points.
Exciting with Christian values not cheesy but more along the lines of Raiders of the Lost Ark keeps the readers attention especially teens. I highly recommend this series Cooper Kids
