12yo Kyle gets a chance to stay overnight in the new town library designed by world-famous game maker, Luigi Lemoncello. Kyle is beyond excited but then learns that getting out is the real puzzle. Kyle and the other kids are in a race to see who can figure out all the puzzles and win the game by escaping the library first.�
The illustrations are bright and colorful and add to the story. Loaded with all sorts of book references and clues, this will appeal to bibliophiles, gamers, and mystery solvers alike. I stayed hooked throughout and look forward to the next book! Kyle and his friends seem to represent a mix of ethnic backgrounds.�
