I have yet to notice a difference in the author’s writing and find all of them very well written. I love the way Jude can still keep you on your toes for what will happen next like the other 3 books in this typical action/mystery series. I love the adventures of Dan and Amy as they go about finding these clues because it helps learn a little about historical people, places, and things. Also, it makes a little bit of a twist on history and makes it more fun creating questions not answered adding to the edgey feel of the book. I would rate this Story 10/10 because I cannot stop reading this series. I can’t wait to finish and reveal the end result in book

The only thing that could have been improved is the figurative language. There is so much figurative language at certain parts that many readers do not may have trouble understanding it. Even with the confusing parts this book deserves a four out of five stars, because it is intriguing, but still has flaws.…

    Although the story didn't involve as much action as an usual murder mystery, the characters were quite adorable, not only because of the fact that they were sheep, but because of their quirky, humorous personalities. The plot did go a little bit slow, and there were interludes between clues, but when the plot developed, it built up suspense and excitement. The main characters were fully developed, and each have their own strengths and weaknesses. There were some parts that gave me a laugh, and I quite enjoyed the simplicity of the novel. I didn't feel like the ending was rushed, unlike other novels where the author seems to just get to the resolution as soon as possible.…
