The Dead of Night (The 39 Clues: Cahills vs. Vespers, Book 3)

De: Peter Lerangis

Narrado por: David Pittu

Amy and Dan have managed to rescue one of the Cahills kidnapped by the Vespers, but the remaining hostages are still in peril. Their search for the next ransom item leads Amy and Dan to Turkey and then to Italy where a visit to the site of an ancient disaster changes everything. The Vespers are far more dangerous than the siblings ever imagined and, even worse, it looks like they have an undercover mole posing as a Cahill. Amy and Dan have to face the biggest decision of their lives with nowhere to turn... and no one to trust.

Just right for my 9 y.o.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If your kids enjoyed other books from "The 39 Clues" series, they want be disappointed. To me this series is like a pack of vitamin candies - kids love them, you know there is not much nutritional value in them, but you yield once in a while (in this case "vitamins" are some geography and history).

I can't wait for the next book

Fun stuff!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This book is good for learning Geography - I keep hearing about places and end up looking them up on Google Earth.

What did you like best about this story?

Solid story, well laid out. There were times when I said to myself, "Really?" because the kids do a few things that are dumb that make the story a bit more predictable. However, the backstory with the Dad is great.

What about David Pittu’s performance did you like?

David Pittu is one of the best. The voices are very distinctive, and easy to listen to. Also, the production is top notch. Some audiobooks have obvious cuts and pops, and the sound quality can be rough, but not so with this company. The clarity and even the music are both perfect for this reading.
