The Emerald Quest, book #1 in The Noah Winter Adventure Series by Renee Pawlish, is a preteen and young adult adventure story that centers around a thirteen-year-old boy named Noah, along with his parents Frank and Riley, and their assistant and friend of the family, Anthony. The Winters are experienced adventure hunters who explore the depths of the ocean around their Florida Keys home, along with the many shipwrecks that can be found there. They are called upon to find lost treasures, which in this case is a long-lost and very valuable emerald rumored to have been in a family for generations. There are always dangers that go along with treasure hunting, and this time is no exception. Noah will face predators on land and under the sea as he and his family race to find the gem before it lands in the wrong hands.
The Emerald Quest by Renee Pawlish is a well written, exciting story that preteens and young adults who love the adventure and mystery genres will snap up. They will easily identify with Noah, as he is just like any other 13-year-old boy who would rather explore than do his homework, and who finds pirates, buried treasure, and mysterious bad guys to be wildly exciting. The book is well formatted and age appropriate, as well as being a quick read that will grip readers from the first page, and leave them waiting impatiently for the next undersea adventure that befalls Noah and his family!
