The Consipiracy Ends


“Several factors make this book a top choice for reluctant readers, including the nonstop action, the small trim, the short length and the amount of white space on the pages.” - Kirkus Reviews(December 1, 2009)


“Lord creates a tense environment…the villains are suitably vile and entertaining, and Cal makes for an affable hero.” - Publishers Weekly (December 7, 2009)

"Even the packaging is engaging; there are illustrations and graphics scattered throughout the pages to emphasize discoveries or new puzzles as Cal moves from one dangerous situation to the next. Conspiracy 365: January proves that venturing outside of your usual reading zone can be a good thing. I am looking forward to reading February!” – Manga Maniac Café (May 5, 2010)

“Wow.. that's all I pretty much have to say about this book! …it sure keeps you on the edge of your seat. I definitely think this book is a best seller series in the making, and anyone who likes books with tons of action and a mysterious twist to it will really enjoy Conspiracy 365.” – 14-year-old reviewer, Flamingnet.com , Rating 10 (scale of 0-10)

“…it will be a hit with tweens and they'll be racing to get to the end to see what's next for Cal and his family. I love the idea behind this series… I also loved how the page numbers of the book counted down-it added to the suspense of the story and I hope other readers pick up on it. …It's short and fast paced and I would hand this over to reluctant readers in a heartbeat.” - GreenBeanTeenQueen
