Travelling overseas on yet another adventurous family holiday (BORING), instead of holed up at home in front of his PlayStation (HEAVEN), Ryan and his sister find themselves bored out of their minds, stuck in an old motel room while a storm ravages outside.
Trying to escape the boredom, Ryan is coaxed into exploring the dead end town with his sister against his father's strict instructions. But their adventure soon turns sour when a savage cyclone and a destructive fire threaten to take their life away.
The dream holiday overseas soon turns into a nightmare for Ryan James and his annoying sister Lisa, when they find themselves seeking shelter from the damaging storm in a haunted house. After getting trapped in a video game and becoming a superhero in a previous adventure, nothing seems too frightening for Ryan. But the dilapidated old house with its strange occurrences may prove to be far more challenging than any old video game as he fights his way through the dangerous peril.
Trapped in one of the scariest haunted houses known, their holiday soon turns into a real life nightmare that they may never wake from. REVIEWS
Best book series after Wimpy Kid. I give it 5 stars. Quite scary at times but overall a very exciting and thrilling book. Really thrilling and lots of fun to read. I like the way this series actually takes an everyday kid playing video games and then turns it into a great adventure story. Really thrilling, and lots of fun to read. It was also extremely exhilarating to read. The author takes a light-hearted and sometimes outrageous sense of humor and uses it to deal with serious issues that middle school kids have to deal with in their everyday lives. FOR PARENTS
Enthralling, hilarious, and unpredictable, the Game on Boys series is designed to appeal to the heart of any boy or girl.
Video game-obsessed kids, reluctant readers, and children-at-heart will adore this series with its captivating story lines, whacky illustrations, and heaps of school yard humor intermingled with heart-warming life lessons. This book is sure to get the kids away from their consoles for a while. Make sure you read the other Game on Boys books soon. They can be read in any order, but preferable to read them from 1-7.
Read them aloud to your children and they won't want to put them down; a great inspiration to continue to build reading confidence on their own.
