Book Review- Trackers by Patrick Carman

Trackers #1
Trackers is the new book by Patrick Carman that combines web videos with the book for a multi-media experience that kids will love.  Carman's Skeleton Creek series was the first at blending the two mediums and proved to be very entertaining. This is another great addition to the genre.

Trackers is basically a techno-thriller for kids, told through transcripts of an interrogation of Adam, the creator of this group of teenage trackers, mixed with links to websites and videos. Looking to help others, and to have fun doing it, the group don't realize how much danger they are in for  when they get involved in something they shouldn't.

The book did seem to end very abruptly right in the middle of the action. Hoping the next book in the series isn't released to long after this one.

Trackers will be released on May 11, 2010 in hardcover. 

4/5
