 It's AWESOME! August 7, 2010
It's part maze and puzzle. My mom bought this for me during Christmas. It also tells a story and parts of the castle. Even though I'm a girl, I reccomend this for boys.
Fun! February 3, 2010

I gave this maze to my eight year old nephew for Christmas and he was immediately taken in by it.. a favorite among his gifts! Great maze!

This book is on the expensive side if you're thinking coloring book prices, but it's great! My son and I went through it during homeschool. Each maze page is not only fun but has a continuing story about a boy and his father as they maneuver through a battle and escape the dungeons of the evil antagonist. My son loved the mazes (just the right level of difficulty for first and second graders if they pay attention) and we enjoyed the story. I wish there were a dozen in this series.
Another great maze book from National Geographic February 8, 2009

I purchased both this and the Eqyptian maze book by National Geographic for my daughter this last Christmas. She and I have really enjoyed doing them. This one talks about storming a castle and relays information in a fun way. Ever wonder how castles kept out intruders or how to overcome their defenses? Well, this is a great beginner book on those very ideas coupled with some very well illustrated mazes and a bonus word puzzle that holds the key to helping the "hero" of the story. A lot of fun for a child with or without parent involvement. I highly recommend these books.
Beautiful book, but not very long January 13, 2009

This is a beautiful book. The mazes are just the right difficulty for my maze-loving 6-year-old. He struggled with the page of codes, and he skipped all the interesting historical info in the margins. I think when he is 8 he might go back and look at those things again. This was a Christmas present, and after he opened it he went to the table and did all the mazes and really wasn't that interested in the remaining presents under the tree. This is a maze book that we'll keep and put on a bookshelf, because it does have interesting information and it is so pretty. I'd say it took him about half an hour to do all the mazes in the book. I would get another National Geographic maze book for him.
