The Game of Sunken Places

The Game of Sunken Places is by M.T. Anderson. Greg is going to visit his strange Uncle Max. He doesn't want to go alone and takes his friend Brian along. The adventure begins when they find a board game called "The Game of Sunken Places"; if you are thinking Jumangi - don't. This story gets strange very fast and stays that way. The ending sums everything up, but leaves you with questions. This is not a bad book, it's just strange. It's a fantasy worth reading, but it is strange. Everyone getting the "strange" part here?!? :)

Ratings: 7th grade - 6 out of 10.
