Review

Within the pages of The Serpent’s Curse the search for relics continues with the addition of a kidnapping. Several youngsters of unknown age are traveling around the world on an adventure that defies the imagination. Employing history, geography and some fantasy Abbott has created a world where the young are as intelligent and brave as adults. There are however some occasions when the dialog does not enhance the story.

This is a Copernicus Legacy series title, one that depends on the previous book to be fully appreciated.

Overall Book Score: good
