Cryptid Hunters

Author: Roland Smith

Cryptid Hunters is Jurassic Park for tweens. It's got all the action and adventure of the blockbuster, and it's got dinosaurs! When Marty and Grace's parents disappear in South America, they are sent to live with their Uncle Wolfe, a cryptid hunter, who looks for things like the kraken, the loch ness monster and dinosaurs. Uncle Wolfe receives an urgent message from his friend in the Congo and promptly prepares to pack Marty and Grace up to go back to boarding school so that he can go to the Congo and possibly find the dinosaur, mokele-mbembe before the evil scientist Dr. Blackwood encounters it. On the way though, Marty and Grace are accidentally dropped into the jungle with only a chimpanzee, a teacup poodle, and a high-tech gadget called a Gizmo. It's up to them to find mokele-mbembe and to avoid Dr. Blackwood's clutches to reunite with their uncle. Grace and Marty are great characters who slowly develop over the course of the story. Bookish Grace discovers an inner bravery that she never knew she had, and Marty eventually turns his mischievous pranks into life-saving plans. The book is an action-packed thrill ride through the jungle that you will not want to miss.
