When we first met the intrepid, orphaned quartet that made up a large part of the Mysterious Benedict Society we were left feeling that surely this couldn't be the last adventure that they'd be on together...and we were absolutely right.

A quartet of extraordinarily gifted children save themselves and their adult friends from the bad guys. Great vocabulary, excellent examples of noble heroism. Although I did not read the first book in the series, at no point did I feel out of sorts.
