Book Description:

CastleCorp and the famous Castleton brothers are unveiling the World’s Greatest Adventure Machine! The roller coaster is an experience like no other, and four lucky kids have won the chance to be the first to ride it.
    There’s Trevor, whose latest stunt got him in trouble at school again. There’s Devin, whose father is pushing him to be the next Internet sensation. Nika’s wealthy grandfather isn’t too pleased about her participation. And Cameron, he’ll be the first to tell you, is a certified genius.
    The whole world is watching. But as the kids set off on their journey, they begin to realize that there is perhaps more to their fellow contest winners than meets the eye. And the Adventure Machine? It might just have a mind of its own.
    Join the contestants on their wild ride if you dare. Your adventure starts now!



Rorie's Review:

As soon as I got this book in the mail, it disappeared into the hands of my 9-year-old and I didn't see it again for over a month. (I had to go dig it out of the depths of his room so I could read it!) He had it finished within a day or two, a sure sign that he really, really likes a book.  I wasn't sure how I would enjoy the book, simply because it's not what I typically read. I started it a little hesitantly, but it didn't take more than a few pages for me to become hooked. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from this story, but I got way more than I bargained for! I laughed, I was on the edge of my seat, I didn't want it to end. This book might be marketed for middle graders, but this is a story that I think any age group would love. Now I just need to get the rest of the author's books and read those too...after I can get them away from my son, that is.

Braden's Review:


I like the World's Greatest Adventure machine. I like how it is very futuristic and has very futuristic technology. My favorite character was Cameron. I like how he is scared of rides like fast roller coasters like me and is very smart. My favorite part of the book is when they find out that it only lasted barely three minutes when it felt like four hours. Really want to know what happens next will the lawyer get the real Drive or did Terry make the mistake like they wanted him to. I really hope the author makes another book that tells me what happens next. I want to know I hope you make another book on this.
