The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner’s
Dilemma by Trenton Lee Stewart is the third book in his children’s
adventure series. We again join Reynie, Kate, Sticky and Constance on an
adventure to thwart Mr Curtain.
I gave this book 4.5 out of 5 stars. I liked learning more
about Constance and watching the four of them continue to learn and grow. The
characters are still so wonderful and fun to watch. It is really nice to see
them over an extended period of time and handling varying situations up to and
through this book.
The plot was fascinating and interesting making for a fast
read. I liked that with each book we get new scenarios, even if the same
villain. The clues and problem solving are so captivating I only wish I was so
clever.
Overall, this is a wonderful addition to the series and I am
almost sad that there is only one more sequel and a prequel left to read.
