About this ebook

From the lost Journals of the Seven Wonders saga comes the story of Burt Wenders—one of the first of the chosen kids to be marked as "The Select." In this thrilling prequel to Book 1, delve into the mystery and the magic of Seven Wonders, the brand-new adventure series from Peter Lerangis, the bestselling author of several books in the 39 Clues series.

It's the year 1894, and thirteen-year-old Burt and his father are on an archaeological expedition gone wrong. After a tumultuous boat ride, Burt and the archaeologists find themselves stranded on what seems to be a deserted island. That is, seems to be deserted until Burt starts hearing music that no one else can hear . . . and blacking out with no explanation. Maybe there is something to Burt's father's expedition after all? All but tortured by his surroundings, Burt ventures to find out. He can only hope to survive.

Ratings and reviews

When I tried to add this book to my library, Google asked me to add a payment method. But this book is free so why am I having to show a payment offer, oh and get this it says you will not be charged. Then why the hell do I need to show my card details Google! So you can steal some of my money secretly or send lots of bills and pretend that I owe you money. Sorry if you think I'm rude but fix this problem or I will quit Google and tell everyone my experience.

I feel that the first "book" could have done with a few more chapters to explain the island and other characters from then better. I'm not sure I understand the similarity between the two boys experiences 200 years apart. In any event its a concern that you only getting a few chapters per book 1. Let's hope the 250 odd pages of book 2 is for more bountiful in both story and chapters for the ZAR ~30 paid.

I read the first book and going to buy the babylon book.I just love this series so I wondered how the journal series will work. For those who worries about the credit card even do this is free go to this site sevenwondersbooks com
