Author: Gary Blackwood Genre: Historical Fiction, Mystery
What this book is about: This book is about Rufus, a twelve-year-old boy who has no money, no home, and no family. But he can beat anyone at chess. He is offered a job to operate the Turk, an automaton chess player. If he tells anyone the Turk's secret, though, who knows what will happen to him!
Your opinion: It was okay. I liked when Rufus went outside and was in the real world. I didn't like how it was mostly just him sitting in a room. I felt like I was forced to keep reading.
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
Who would like this book: I think someone who knows French and wants a long story would like this book.
