This was a good mystery, even if the themes were overdone. For children, it’s probably one of the first time they are encountering the Templars, so it’s probably not too bad for them. I think the codes would have been better to see in a physical copy than heard in the audiobook, but that’s just the way it is. I am enjoying the series, but get that this one didn’t have as much historical context and the other books I’ve read so far. Maybe the next one will.

More puzzles, more codes......the books keep getting better! This book was exciting, and fun to read. I would never have thought about who the antagonists were. The last letter to Christopher gives me the chills. Who is the raven? Is it Rémi, but how can he have the same handwriting as Christopher? I better go find out in the next book. I hope there are more codes. I can't wait to see Christopher solve them!

WOW. That was incredibly amazing. I cried near the end. I am utterly confused and I want the next book. This may not make sense but I'm sick right now, so excuse me.

Not sure why they changed the reader for this third book in the series. I preferred the reader of the first two, so it took a while to get used to the change, but the story was so interesting and engrossing that I was carried along anyway.

Awesome storyline, even bigger than the other books, although the intense conversations were tiring. I just kept wishing that Christopher and Tom would stop yelling at each other. I thought for sure Tom would say he was quitting when they returned home.

Not as good as the first two, but still a solid read.

Because of he and his friends' vital intervention in uncovering the plague conspiracy in the previous book, Christopher and company are invited to meet King Charles. It is on this special occasion that Christopher actually saves the life of the king and is sent to travel with his sister back to France to uncover the plot to murder the descendants of a previous French (can't remember which one) and keep his sister alive. While investigating he learns of a sacred mission of the Knights of the Templar and a great lost treasure.

It's getting crazier and crazier, very much a Dan Brown style book for the tween set. One again, the tween whi is its primary audience loved it.
