The author just describes it so well that I thought I was there in Quicksand Swamp. Also when you finish the book look back at the begining,you will find tons of clues. When you start reading it is hard to stop. In other words your eyes will be stuck in that book. If you are traveling across the country bring it. I highly reconmend.
One of Bill Wallace's best

When i was a kid Danger in Quicksand Swamp was my favorite book ever. Now that I've grown up, I still look at it with fond memories and would reccomend it to anyone who enjoys adventure and suspense. I would also reccomend Trapped in Cave by Bill Wallace, an equally suspensful and adventurous book.
Danger in Quicksand Swamp
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Ben and Jake found a boat with a map inside. It leads to a buried treasure in the middle of Quicksand Swamp. But when they reach the island and start digging, someone ties their boat to the other bank that's surrounded by alligators. So they half-way bury themselves at the edge of the quicksand, wait until the mystery man comes, then push him into the quicksand. I agree with the author. I like the way he setups the story. The way its based actually. Its just like the way J.K. Rowling does with Harry Potter 1, 2, 3, 4. I would recommened this book, Danger in Quicksand Swamp, to anyone. Especially people who like adventure and mystery stories.
A fun adventure!
