The World’s Greatest Adventure Machine

An adventure novel about four lucky kids and a mysterious, but thrilling ride for fans of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or Jurassic Park!

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!

My Review

If your kids love adventure and reading, this is a must for them. It has such great characters who are well-developed plus a plot that will keep your kids on the edge of their seats. It has a lot of humor because of the quirky characters and fun dialog, and it has lots of action. There is never a dull moment!

Four kids have “won” a contest…or have they…maybe it’s all a setup…or is it? Who can be trusted? What is real? Can the kids even trust themselves and their feelings? The World’s Greatest Adventure Machine is the ride of a lifetime! I enjoyed it, but I am sure kids will even enjoy it more. Having read a lot of books, I could predict the ending, but kids will be surprised. After they read this, ask them if they would want to ride on The World’s Greatest Adventure Machine. I’m not sure I would!

Put this one on your lists to buy for your avid readers. They’ll really enjoy it!
