Wild Boy and the Black Terror has become one of my favorite books. I liked the characters Wild Boy and Clarissa because of Wild Boy's detective skills and Clarissa's acrobatic skills. I liked the setting, because it made me feel like I was there. I was able to read the book without getting lost, but I think it would have been better if I had started with the first book. It was an exciting book but it seemed to drag on in some spots. I recommend this book to people who like mysteries.
