P4) The Chaos Code


On the front cover of the book, there is a quote by Herbie Brennan saying, “One of the scariest things I’ve read in years.”  At first I thought this was not scary at all, but instead very interesting. Now, I can see why he said it was scary. To lead up to the scariness, you may need to know some things. So when Matt goes to his aunts, the secret message rings in his head until he realizes another part of the message. His father mentioned Latin, randomly. Then afterword he said that it may be quite an adventure. Matt knew that in Latin ‘ad’ means to go and venture was his aunt’s boss. Matt never mentioned any of this to his aunt, Venture, or his daughter (Matt’s new friend Robin). A business man comes into play and discusses with venture, soon to be everybody, the situation of Matt’s dad. Now I know that there are other ‘forces’ wanting the info that Matt’s dad was searching for – the lost treasure of St Paul. This is when hundreds of men saved hundreds of scrolls and millions of dollars of Constantinople before it was destroyed. Now it is mysteriously gone. These forces are after the money and not the knowledge. While everybody is busy looking stuff up, Matt snoops around and finds something like a CD only old and thick with pictures and all on it. When he went back, Matt was told to copy disks onto the computer in the library. Now here is the creepy part. Matt lit the candles in the library to read a book, when Robin appeared behind him. He facing the door and it didn’t move, yet Robin just appeared. They talked and Matt told Robin about someone trying to hurt him at his dad’s house. He said, “The hand was rough, it felt almost like sandpaper.” At that Robin gasped and said, “You shouldn’t of lit the candles,” as she blew them out and left him in the library. This is when I could hear like in a movie the high pitch screaming and sounds that creep you out. Here is what I would imagine Robin to be like:
