The 39 clues series

Orphans Amy and Dan belong to a rich and powerful family related to nearly everyone important in history. When their grandmother dies, she leaves 39 clues, spread across the planet, to a treasure that will make the finder immensely powerful. So all the relatives, none of them decent or honest (except Amy and Dan, of course), compete to find and solve the clues while trying to eliminate their competition. This proposed 10-book series (10 physical books followed by 29 online-only installments), each by a different author.

I love the series I can not get enough of the books! When the series is over I am going to cry!! They are all real page turners it is so hard for me to put them down! They also tell you about real people in history. Not that they are actually from a branch but still they are in history.

This is a fantastic mystery series. It intrigues me that even with many authors, the series can keep the same voice throughout. They are hard to put down, and you can learn a lot. For example, I had no idea that Mozart had an equally talented sister, who just wasn't famous because she was a woman!

Love this series. And I love the perspective of all the different authors and each book individually has its own style but still remains true to the original story and all the characters. I also love the depth and complicated relationships. I think that the fact that all the kids ended up helping eachpther unlike most of the adults who were willing to do anything to get the clues no matter who got hurt. I still need to start the Cahills vs. Vespers.
