Summary: You'll never guess it
Review: Christie has some many books which could be termed "her best" that the title becomes somewhat cliche. Almost all Christie's book could be considered her ebst, from my personal favourite "Death Comes As The End", to the one i liked least "Passenger to Frankfurt" which i am sure many other people loved.
All of her books are ingenious, intriguing, and feature a mind-bending puzzle or a fast-paced adventure.

This is no exception. this is porobably one of her most famous, and it's easy to see why. it's completely original and the solution is so unexpected...

The plot runs at such high speed...there's practically a death per chapter...and each person who pops their clogs is murdered in tune with the rhyme "Ten Little Indians". there is a subtle build up of suspense and terror until the final two people remain on the small island, isolated from the world, convinced the other is the killer. paranoia runs rife among the final few victims, and when at last the final ones gets it, we think it's all been sorted out. but oh no.

In the final chapter christie pulls of a brilliant twist, and one that i totally did not see coming. she really pulls the wool over the readers eyes.

a very enjoyable book. highly reccomended

Summary: A Perfect Mystery
Review: This was the first Agatha Christie book I ever read, but it was definatly not the last. Although the first chapter is a tad bit slow it gives you important information on the many characters. I love it when a book has a twist at the end, and this is a perfect example! This is one of the best books I've ever read, and I've read quite a few; I advise this to anyone who likes mystery and suspense books.

Summary: And then there was Agatha Christie
Review: I've always been a huge Agatha Christie fan, but I'd only read her Poirot novels. Hercule Poirot is the greatest fictional detective ever. But this book does not feature Poirot, which is why I wasn't too enthusiastic when I first picked up this book a few years ago. As it turned out, this book is now my all-time favourite mystery!

I suppose the plot is what draws most people to this book. There never has been a more elaborate mystery in the annals of fiction. Ten people gather on an island, supposedly invited by a host who isn't present. We learn quite quickly that all the people are murderers -- murderers that the law can't touch. And the mysterious host who calls himself U. N. Owen ('unknown') plans to execute his guests.

The murders take place in accordance with a little nursery rhyme that is framed in each guest's room. And as people begin to die one by one, and an extensive search reveals that there's no one else on the island, it soon becomes clear that U. N. Owen is someone among the original party. The book soon turns into a psychological thriller as each guest becomes paranoid and suspicious of the others.

The last few chapters are nerve-wrecking and the Epilogue is shocking. Some of the last lines on the book will haunt me forever. "Definitely worth reading" is a huge understatement. Go read it!

"When the sea goes down, there will come from the mainland boats and men. And they will find ten dead bodies and an unsolved problem on Indian Island."

Summary: Excellent!
Review: Reading this book was part of a Literature assignment. I was supposed to read up to page 80 for homework, and I ended up finishing the whole thing instead. If you love mysteries, buy it. If you hate mysteries, buy it. Heck, if you can't read, buy it and get someone to read it to you. :-D

Summary: And Then There Were None/Ten Little Indians
Review: I'm sure you've heard of the popular phrase "what goes around comes around.'' Well, in this suspenseful mystery, And then there were none, Agathie Christie has taken this old phrase to fatal level. These seemingly normal people, General Macarthur, Mr. Justice Wargrave, Mr. And Mrs. Rogers, Anthony Marston, Vera Claythorne, Emily Brent, Dr. Armstrong, Henry Blore, and Phillip Lombard all had one thing in common. They all had a deep dark secret. They were all criminals. They were murderers that had gotten away with their crimes, that is, until now. They were lured to an island where they were the prisoners of a madman's mind. And this mysterious person was taking the law into his own hands. He was planning to carry out their long avoided sentences, which were death. But in order to find out if they are pardoned or if they perish, you'll have to read the book. So, if you like mystery novels, you'll love this book. In our opinion, we think this book is a great novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat never wanting to put the book down.

Summary: A very good mystery!
Review: This book was a very good book and the way it was set up was very different because you would never guess the ending.

It was about 10 people that got letters from someone who was in their past. The letters said that they wanted them to come to an island far away called Indian Island. When they all got there they relized that they were the only ones in the house except the maid and her husbsand, they took care of the house. So they were going to try and leave the next morning but when they went to see if any boats were coming there were none. So they ended up staying there for a while.And the whole book is based on the poem The 10 Little Indians.The only reason I gave it four stars was because I think that the author jamed alot of information in the second chapter and I kind of got confused. It doesn't sound like a good book but I just don't want to give away the ending!

Summary: And Then There Were None
Review: The book And Then there Were None was very interesting. This book was about ten people that were invited to go to a mansion on Indian Island. Through the book they all end up dieing one by one in the same way as the indians in the childrens poem Ten Little Indians. The mystery is to find out who is the person that is killing them off. The book gives you hints to who the the killer my be, and just when you think you know who the killer is that person may get killed. To find out who the killer is you have to read it for yourself.

I thought that this wood was very interesting and a great mystery. To many people this may be the kind of book that you can't put down,but to me it was the kind of book that i liked to put down. Then when i finished it I thought over all it was a good book. I donbt think i would read it again. I think many people may think different because i am not the kind of person that reads a lot of books, and it talks a lot for me to really to into the book.

Summary: And The There Were None
Review: And Then There Were None was a good book. I liked it because it didn't drag on that much. It kept going. Also, some of the words in it were hard to read and understand, but once you got going on it, it was easier to read.
It started out with ten people being invited to Indian Island for a summer vacation by someone that they have never heard of before. Once they get there they go into their rooms and there was the poem "Ten Little Indian Boys". Each verse is how each murder happens. The first verse says that one indian boy choked himself and the first man that dies had choked himself. Then the next verse says that an Indian boy choked himself and in the story that is what happened in the second murder of the story. And it went that way throughout the book.
