Treasure Hunters (BONE #8)

My grandson loves this series. I've bought the entire series for him as I want to encourage him to read. He was thrilled to get them, so I'm a very happy grandma. He's a very good reader, that's why I marked easy on the difficulty level. It may be different for someone else, I don't know.

While the length was disappointing, I did find this to be quite a unique part of the series. The city of Atheia, which Phoney Bone believes has gold, is very grand in its nature, I believe much inspired by Rome. This book mostly builds up the tension for the next book and if there's one thing that could've made this better, I'd say this book could've had more time spent when the protagonists ventured the city. Heck, if there weren't time to fit this all in one book, maybe there could've been another where a character such as Tanael, a fellow outsider of this kingdom, gave a tour of Atheia and told of her time growing up there. Maybe even introduce a temporary antagonist such as a kidnapper of Tanael's parents.

Nice story for a nine year old

My kids love these books

Nothing but good to say here, great physical quality in production, only exceeded by the quality of the story itself. I would recommend buying the books like this as individual stories then one big hard to hold book with all the volumes. Plus the cover art is superb !

I can't tell you how many people I have recommended Bone to. Every time I am in a comic book store and see a mother and a youngster looking for something to break into in the comic scene. The first thing that comes to mind is Bone. It's a great all ages book, it's well written and your kids will love it. With all the "adult" stuff out there... you really need to be cautious what your children are reading. Bone is quality and safe. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Finally completed my collection! Treasure Hunters (#8) is just as good as the rest of the series — exciting, well-written, and a perfect addition to my bookshelf.

Once you start reading about the Bone cousins and their troubles, you feel as though you are a part of the action and have to follow them to the end as they meet more fantastic characters. Every person, animal, and creature adds to the adventure of the Bone cousins as they try to make a new life for themselves and uncover secrets about other characters past which will impact their future. The book act is vibrant with lots of details to the characters (human and other) as well as they scenery around them.
