The Jaguar Stones

The Jaguar Stones is a series about Max Murphy, a 14 year-old boy who travels to central America to find his parents who are obsessed with Mayan history and culture. Soon his uncle is holding him hostage and he has to dash out into the jungle to escape. Then he meets a modern Maya girl and they get dragged into the whole scheme of finding the 5 Jaguar Stones.

The series is by Jon and Pamela Voelkel. I am reading the first book (it is called Middleworld) in the series, and I believe it is the only book in the series Maggie has. It is a hard read, if you don't like a challenge this is NOT your book. It is SUPER boring in parts, and exciting in other parts. I recommend it if you like challenges and enjoy books that are boring in parts. I hope my review is helpful and will make you read this, but if you don't like challenges or someone has not recommend it I understand.
