Aidan and Meg Falconer are their parents' only hope. The Falconers are facing life in prison -- unless Aidan and Meg can follow a trail of clues to prove their innocence. The problem? Right now they're trapped in a juvenile detention center. Until they escape one night -- and find themselves on the run, both from the authorities and from a sinister attacker who has his own reason to stop them.

The Falconers must use their wits to make it across the country ... with plenty of tests along the way.

A little under whelming at first but ended up very intreguing. Can't wait to see what happens next!

Intriguing

I found the story, characters and developing relationships very compelling. There were some genuinely nail-biting close calls as the kids made it on the lamb and some characterisation that would be just at home in a good adult thriller.

However, the length is very annoying. I'm guessing this was aimed at much younger audiences hence each book in the series only being the equivalent of three hours long.

When I'm used to books at least seven hours long I believe much more could have been put into each book, readily condensing the series from six books to three.

This means that while I enjoyed the book and want to read more I will pay twice what I normally pay per series for the rest of "On The Run". Since I read on a budget, this will have to wait a while.

Great book for older readers but...

What did you love best about Chasing the Falconers?

I bought this for a road trip with my kids. It turned out that my 13 year old son had already read the book, but my 11 year old daughter really loved the book and was disappointed when it was over.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Meg was my favorite character. she seemed very strong.

What about Ben Rameaka’s performance did you like?

I liked the way he portrayed Meg.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When they decided to run.

Very good book

An original story that is fast paced and enjoyable. More believable than most action paced novels aimed at teens

Good

The performer works with what he's been given, could hardly blame him for the simple writing.

Nostalgia Gives It 5/5
