The coordinates led to Reykjavik, Iceland. James and his uncle both packed up and

headed on a boat to Iceland. It took them a lot of time to reach Iceland as they were

using sailboats. They took shelter at night in a hotel they found in the area.
In the hotel, they told their plan to the manager of the hotel. The hotel manager knew

several tour guides so he told James and his uncle where one of those tour guides
lived. The next day they went to the tour guide's house. They explained everything to

the tour guide and surprisingly the tour guide agreed .

The tour guide's name was Hans. They started their journey .They had to walk to go
to the summit of the super old mountain/volcano. They climbed until they reached

the top of the summit. Then they got into the hole. They went deeper and deeper into
the cave . They had to crawl through a very small and tight gap. They were hesitant if

they really wanted to go down or not because this was the last point they could go
back from.

They still wanted to go. They set camp on top of a crater. The other day they went on

and on. They walked until they reached a place where there were 3 cave entrances.

All three of them went separate ways. They all got lost. Hans and James’s uncle met
but James was never found. They kept and kept on searching when they found

James laying in the ground, famished and a wound on his leg. After a short rest, they
went walking again in the left path. They walked for some hours until they reached a

camp someone had already set. Inside the sleeping bag there was a note saying
“Arne Saknussemm”. They finally are now sure that this path will lead them to their

destination.

For the people who like science fiction and adventure this book might be the book
for you, it has a lot of thrilling moments. This book is suitable for its targeted

audience/age group and the book’s chapters are very well managed, named and
connected. The downside is that this book doesn't have any pictures and the text is

small (at least for my version of the book). I recommend this book because it has
different versions for different ages and the story of the book is really good. I

recommend this book because it has different versions for different ages and the
