The Reviewers:
Finding treasure isn't always a good omen. "The Secrets of the Magical Medallions" follows the treasure hunters club as they find powerful, magical medallions. They soon realize that when you find power, there is always someone out to take it, and the four kids in the club find evil hot on their tales. A fun adventure for younger readers, "The Secrets of the Magical Medallions" is a choice pick. --Midwest Book Review
The idea of an adventure that combines Hardy Boys Mysteries with Indiana Jones and National Treasure was the author's inspiration to get reluctant readers to enjoy novels. Hooray for targeting this often overlooked audience! McCartney has mixed mystery and magic in a tale that reaches beyond the backyard. He wisely chose to create a slim volume; the 160 page book will be readily picked up by reluctant readers.--V.S. Grenier, Editor of Stories For Children Magazine
f you have kids who enjoy action-packed reads, they're in for a wild ride with this first book in the Treasure Hunter Club series. The Secrets of the Magical Medallions has been called a mix of The Hardy Boys and Indiana Jones with a little piece of the movie, National Treasure, thrown in. I loved reading The Hardy Boys as a kid and the Indiana Jones movies were some of my favorites so I had high expectations for this book. To author, Sean McCarthy's credit, he nails it here. This is an excellent adventure story. It's really fast paced and will keep readers anxious to get to the next page. Book Dads
