Moving Target is a Da Vinci Code style story written for young adults. For years Cassie and her art historian father have moved all over the world to whatever place her father's work took them. Suddenly, Cassie's father, in a panic, takes her out of school. He begins to tell her an unbelievable story about herself and her life when he is shot. Knowing she doesn't have much time, Cassie seeks out the man her father told her to find, a monk in an ancient monastery. There she learns that her life is linked to an ancient spear that can control destinies. Cassie then goes on the run with her best friend, Simone, and Asher, her protector, to find the ancient spear. This book is only the beginning of the story, so I expect there will be more books to follow. This story was very enjoyable with lots of action and some major twists that completely change the direction of the story. Lots of fun - can't wait for the next installment. ( ) This is a very quick read with almost non-stop action. It actually reminds me of a kids version of The DaVinci Code, with secret societies, Roman adventures, and a few puzzling riddles. I'll definitely recommend it to our teens, I suspect 6th and 7th graders will like it most. However, as an adult reader this did that thing I dislike so much where the book ended just as the story started to take off. This keeps it nice and short, but I finished it and was all: ARGH because I just wanted to know what was going to happen. And I doubt I'll have time or inclination to pick up the next in the series, so now I will never know. Grr! Anyway. Good for reluctant readers too, probably. Cassie is launched into a life of intrigue and danger when she discovers that she is the target of a group known as the Hastati who are after her for, due to her bloodline, the power she posses to control the Spear of Destiny. This novel is fastpaced and well-written, complete with plot twists and,of course, the cliffhanger ending. Will definitely be looking for the sequel. Recommended for reluctantreaders 9 years old and up. Moving Target is a Da Vinci Code style story written for young adults.
