Description Share Post Maisie Vs the Pyramids Jack Jackman (Nosy Crow) Maisie’s father has a new ‘how to‘ book to research, this time in Egypt for its ‘How to Break Codes’. However things take a strange turn from the moment the pair are met at the airport by Dr Tariq. Isn’t Dr Tariq a female? Isn’t she expecting Dad’s daughter alongside Dad? Then again, why aren’t they heading to their hotel? In fact, why are they heading off, with Dad driving, right into the middle of the desert? It’s Maisie Vs the Pyramids. We know Maisie’s abilities, alongside her father’s. What’s more, we know that Maisie’s father has promised her no more secrets, while Maisie’s aware that her father’s not as boring as first seems. We’ve been there through their adventures in Antarctica andthe Himalayas. It seems that at each point, our hearts have been in our mouths, or our legs over our heads. It’s no different here, as we meet cliff edges, explosions, hot air balloon disasters, killer scorpions…. How will we (and Maisie’s Dad) get through this? Could there be something in this mix that is decidedly dicey? Bookwagon is so happy to welcome Maisie Vs the Pyramids aboard. Jack Jackman has created such a fast-paced, funny, helter-skelter, wild and wonderful series, with such an appealing lead character.
