/24-7PressRelease/ - August 28, 2006 - Max Elliot Anderson began writing action-adventures and mysteries five years ago. These exciting books are first targeted for boys, 8 and up. However, girls and adults also enjoy them. Two of his books include 9/11 themes.
SECRET OF ABBOTT'S CAVE touches lightly on the subject since the location for this adventure is the small Virginia town of New Market. New Market is not far from Washington, D.C. The main thrust of this story reminds us of how important our first responders are, and that they are the true heroes in America.
Reviews:
"Secret Of Abbot's Cave is not only a rollicking good story, it has embedded within it some very good personal values for young readers to absorb." - Midwest Book Review
"This book kept me glued until the last letter. I really liked the fact that they had a police scanner, just like I hope to someday. I also enjoyed all the cool facts about caves, and the eternal lesson of honesty and teamwork. This book makes a perfect gift for any tweener! Five stars!" - Jason McDonald
"While the boys are getting ready for the camping trip, news come across the scanner of a bank robbery. This sounds exciting! The boys decide to continue with their plans for the weekend and continue packing—after all, the bank robbers will be long gone and their trip will be completely uneventful—or will it?" - Laura V. Hilton
MOUNTAIN CABIN MYSTERY begins as a harrowing story of three boys who become separated from their mountain hiking group, in a dense fog. But it is the abandoned cabin they stumble upon that holds the greatest danger. Later the boys discover that they were responsible for stopping a terrorist cell from attacking Denver.
Reviews:
"Anderson dedicated this book to the memory of 9/11, and I found this to be a moving gesture. The story will definitely keep you riveted while frantically turning pages to learn the outcome!" - Kelli Glesige
"How refreshing it is to find a mystery story written for 8 - 12 year olds that is relevant to modern times and yet retains an old-fashioned flavor. My eight-year-old read it through twice in one day." - Jean Hall
"The dialog crackles with wit and smart repartees and the emphasis is on action." - Ram Subramanian
"In a world of TV and media coverage where violence and crime seem to win the day, Mountain Cabin Mystery is a refreshing, thrilling story that also concentrates on the values that ensure a meaningful and peaceful life - yes, with plenty of mystery and adventure!" - Viviane Crystal
