Capture The Worlds Greatest Adventure Machine Narrated By Frank L. Cole In Electronic Format
this book is really the adventure of a life time for thekids chosen to try out the World's Greatest Adventure Machine! I enjoyed everything about this book, the characters, the plot, the adventures and danger.
I loved that you get to "know" each of thekids at least a little bit, You know their struggles and their strengths, You get to see at least some of the adventure through each one of their eyes and that just makes the whole story more fun,
I loved the plot, It is so fun, it's fast paced and it really draws the reader in from the very first page, Who wouldn't want to be one of the kids chosen to try out this super cool new roller coaster!
I loved the imagination required both to come up with the adventure the kids go on, how they solve everything thrown at them, and just who the real criminal happens to be.
This book is great for middle grade readers! I don't think there are many who will not enjoy this book or think it's boring, I can't wait to find out what my own middle grade reader thinks of it! Thanks to Frank L Cole for making a fun story for these kids to read! It's really fun.
This book has something for everyone! With a mystery that grabbed me and kept me guessing from the first clicking of the gears as the book took off to the final burst into the straightaway at the end, humor that made me laugh out loud as I was pulled through the twists and turns until my stomach dropped in suspense or I waved my hands in the air, cheering at the adventure.
The characters were so real and fascinating, and the story was so filled with imagination that I wanted to climb back into the Worlds Greatest Adventure Machine with them again the moment I finished.
It will take you on a ride that you wont soon forget! Trevor Isaacs sometimes gets into trouble, He had no fear and this condition, at least thats what his mother called it, was because of a misfiring amygdala, His problem of suspension from school was put on a back burner when Doug Caselton of Castle Corp stopped by to tell Trevor and his mom about the contest hed won.
Trevor and three others won a spot for the maiden voyage of the Adventure Machine, Cameron Kiffings mom was reminding him not to take off his clothes when they had company, Apparently, Cameron felt restricted in his clothing when he was working on complex equations, Devin Drobbs was a legendary gamer and social media star at the Giggling Gargoyle Arcade, Instead of entertaining his fans hed read his fathers face when he received the winning call, Nika Pushkin watched a video on her grandfathers private jet of Doug Caselton telling her she had won the contest, over and over, Her grandfather offered her anything she wanted rather than have her ride on the Adventure Machine, He wanted his little princess to be safe under his care, All of the parents wanted their kids to be safe,
The Adventure Machine is like riding a roller coaster, Riders wear a special neoprene and malleable titanium suit that connects with the machine for a thrilling ride experience, The machine actually reads the riders mind, As the first run begins, the riders encounter VIC, the voice and interactive brain of the machine, that will be their guide on this new adventure, As the big adventure begins not everything is going as planned, The team gets thrown off the ride in a jungle and have to fend for themselves, with VICs guidance, and they soon learn that VIC is in control with a mind of its own.
With the world watching how will this team find their way back home

Received an ARC from the author, all views and opinions expressed are my own, This book was not my favorite, My junior high child, however, loved it, Here's my review for Delacourt: sitelink blogspot. com This book was full of adventure and mystery!
Four kids brought in, each with unique abilities, to be the first on an all new ride with all new technology!
Nothing is as it seems and, there is a bit of deception fueling the whole thing.
Really good book about finding friendship and being who you are,
I loved how the narrator brought each character their own unique voice, He did well bringing the story to life! Mostly enjoyable with some periods of dullness, Would have beenif the kids weren't so damn annoying, They did grow on me though, mostly, but then Devin's father and Nika's grandfather were dicks, so they were the worst, Interesting what it ended up being, kept my interest, Frank L. Cole has written a wonderful adventure story that kids will have a delightful time reading, The story is about a group of kids that become friends and their adventures, This story is humorous, filled with friendship and lots of fun, There are several main characters of the story and its great to see the perspective of each, This story has a bit of a feel similar to that of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, as well as at the end leaves readers with several unanswered questions.
Overall this is a fun and delightful story that young readers are sure to enjoy,
The audible narrator, Mike Golczynski, was fun and entertaining reader, He really brings Coles story to life by using different voices for the various characters throughout the story, His voice is
likeable and keeps listeners enthralled throughout the entirety of the story,

Four children have won the chance to take the first ride on CastleCorp's latest roller coaster, The World's Greatest Adventure Machine, First we have Trevor, who lacks fear and gets in trouble all the time, Then we have Devin, who has instincts that predict the future, Next is Cameron, a certified genius with a clothing problem, and lastly, we have Nika, a girl without the ability to feel pain, Put them all together and you've got the perfect first group of riders,
As they board the Adventure Machine for the ride of their lives, things start to go wrong, They are forced off the machine and forced to fight for their lives in a strange environment that includes AI robots and holograms, They'll have to work together to get out of the ride alive, and then hope they can defeat the backstabbing liar that clues have led them to uncover,
My thoughts
GREAT book! I read it through as fast as I could, anxious to figure out the reality of what the ride involved and how the kids were all connected.
Each kid has a full back story and unique talents, You really get a feel for each of them as the story progresses, One issue, sometimes there are mid POV switches out of the blue, However, the story rolls forth full of tension and mystery,
Kids are going to love this book, It gets a little hairy, especially with a cleaver wielding psychopath, but in all, I found the adventure to be well worth it, I had some idea what was happening, but then the story takes on a vibe like the movie, Inception, The author got me there, because I didn't guess what was happening until later,
Tension, high stakes and great characters make this a fun, exciting read for middle graders, If it wasn't for the POV switches I'd give it a perfect score, but I'll have to give it a,, and that's darn good!
