â€œIndiana Jones would have stiff competition in young Joshua Garcia . . . This novel is well written, with the action unfolding at a fast and satisfying clip. This series is destined to be a hit. Not only is the non-stop action enthralling, but the many mysteries and unanswered questions will have the reader begging for the rest of the series. Highly Recommended.â€ Library Media Connection, starred review

â€œA gripping survival story begins. Without his friends, miles from a computer, Josh braves snakes and spiders before arriving at a labyrinthine hidden city, a boyâ€™s fantasy of pyramids, caves and tunnels. Joshâ€™s quest for a long-lost Mayan text giving the key to salvation is bound up with his personal destiny in an unexpected way. But he is also, like all 13-year-olds, uncertain of what the future will bring. Harris cleverly captures this pivotal period.â€ Carole Mansur, The Daily Telegraph

â€œMG Harris proves she has a deft touch and a real skill for writing heart-stopping adventure in her code-cracking debut The Joshua Files: Invisible City. After finding a secret manuscript hidden in the back of a photograph frame, Josh is propelled into a high-speed chase across Mexico. Harris has paced this fast-moving adventure with expertise, breaking up the action with Joshâ€™s blog entries and ensuring that a very real story of grief and depression of a mother driven to the brink of insanity after the loss of her husband is threaded through the book to give balance and authenticity.â€ Vanessa Curtis, Glasgow Herald
