Praise for TombQuest Book 1: Book of the Dead
"Like a preteen Indiana Jones and Lara Croft, Alex and Ren make a
compelling duo, and Northrop balances pathos and action effectively
to engage readers. Funny and smart, Alex and Ren are excellent
companions for this fast-paced and scorpion-filled ride."--
