Attack at the Arena (Imagination Station books) by Paul McCusker and Marianne Hering


Not too long ago, I was able to review Voyage of the Vikings (Imagination Station books)  the first book in the Imagination Station series (Adventures in Odyssey).   So, I was excited to received Attack at the Arena this past week.  This is the second book in the series.  In this book, Patrick and Beth's adventure continues when they head back in time to ancient Rome.  Their mission is to find a silver cup in the hopes of helping a mysterious man named Albert.  Patrick and Beth discover a lot about ancient Rome and get into a little bit of trouble along the way. The other books in this series are: Voyage of the Vikings (book 1), Peril in the Palace (book 3), and Revenge of the Red Knight (book 4).  This series is recommended for children ages 7 and up.

I really enjoyed reading this second book in the series.  This book does a great job carrying the exciting mystery that was begun in the first book.   Also, I like the fact that this book is not only a mystery, but it also helps children learn a little bit about ancient Rome in the process.  I would highly recommend this book.

**I received a complimentary copy of this book from Tyndale House Publishers in an exchange for an honest review.
