Summary: Funny and witty
Comment: I really enjoy reading Finn Zwake books, and this mystery in itself is intriguining. Finn and his mystery-writer Uncle Stoppard are on a trip to Iceland chasing the last reminants of rumors as to where Finn's parents are. Of course they have to go somewhere potentially dangerous, this time it is the Haunted City of Tquuli. Finn isn't spooked by the legends about the Haunted City and the Vikings that once lived there. That is, he isn;t spooked until a member of their rock-climbing expadition vanishes while hanging off the side of a mountain in a sleeping bag... another disapperence and some odd footprints...
Ah ha! Now see how alluring it is. Believe me all is explained and if you read carefully and think critically you might just solve the mystery before hand. Enjoy!

Summary: Suspense and Mystery
Comment: The Viking Claw like many of the other Finnegan Zwake Mysteries is very interesting to read. Micheal Dahl just keeps you guessing until the very end. In The Viking Claw, Dahl fills the book with useful facts from history and also to techniques in mountain climbing. Once you pick this book up and read a chapter you will never put it down again. In this book you start to think one person is the killer when another is causing the mischief. The person you least expect comes out at the very end as the crook. So I would highly recommmend it.

Summary: An exhibition of evil...
Comment: When Finnegan Zwake and his famous mystery-writing uncle, Stoppard Sterling, go on an exhibition to Iceland in order to find Finn's parents and to discover the lost Viking city of Tquuli (pronounced too-cool-ee), they aren't sure what they'll find. But from the moment the plane lands (and Stoppard ends up with mints up his large nose) things start to get intersting. The two Minnesotans are introduced to the King of Ice Cubes and his wife, who are tagging along on this exhibition so that they can find new ice for their famous cube company: Roobick's Cubes (which can make even the most terrible soda taste good). After that, they meet the rest of their crew (none of whom would seem like the murderous type). Finn even makes a new Icelandic friend: Hrór Hrolfson. The climb is going great, and they are almost to Thor's Belly Button (where Finn's parents were last seen) when one of the members of the dig vanishes from his sleeping bag--which wouldn't be so odd if the sleeping bag was on the ground. But this one was on a "hammock" hanging to the side of an icy cliff 100 feet about the snowy ground. Once they reach Thor's Naval, will they be able to solve this strange mystery? Or will it lead them to even more mysteries and murders? Find out in this exciting volume in Finnegan Zwake Mysteries! This book was so funny and thrilling! If you read the first three, you need to read this one right away. It leaves you dying to read the next book, The Coral Coffin, which will not be out until probably November. I recommend this for fans of humorous books and mysteries.
