Treasure at Amorys

Read for the first time in GGBP edition, and I liked it very much. An exciting adventure story, involving Roman treasure and artefacts, and some unpleasant criminals, two of whom had come against the Lone Piners in some previous adventures.

This is 15th in the series, mainly featuring Jon and Penny who - in a low-key sideline to the adventure - finally realise how much they mean to each other. The twins play their inimitable parts, with Mary demonstrating once more her quite advanced sensitivity for one so young, and the whole is a satisfying story.

Intended for younger teens, this appeals most to adults of my age who recall the books from our teenage years. I would recommend it to anyone over the age of about ten, with the proviso that show more there are some quite tense scenes with violence that's not glossed over.
