Summary: Mysterious
Review: And Then There Were None takes place on a deserted island off the coast of Scotland. Ten people are mysteriously invited to this place called Indian Island. Once all ten of them are there, they start to be murdered one by one. During the story you find out new things about each and every character. You find out why each person was chosen to come to the island. As the characters start to die, you try to figure out who the killer is in your head but you keep changing your mind as the story goes on.
The story is full of mystery and suspicion. You think every character is the murderer at one point sometime during the story. Agatha Christie keeps you guessing and on the edge of your seat. This book is definitely one for the mystery lover. If you love to try and figure out who the killer is, then you will for sure love to read this book. I thought the book was a great read. Christie kept me intrigued the whole time to keep reading the book. I would definitely recommend this book to not only people who love mysteries, but also anyone who just enjoys a book with great action and suspense.

Summary: Not one of my Agatha Favorites
Review: The story And Then There Were None A.K.A. Ten Little Indians is truly suspenseful and frightening. The tale tells of ten people who receive a mysterious letter from a person named "Unknown" who invites them to spend time at his/her island. Being a predictable mystery story they all decide to travel to this island to meet their "Unknown" host, which in the end leads to their demise. When one by one people start dropping like flies, they start to realize this is no longer a vacation of rest and relaxation. They start to fight for their lives. Panic strikes them and they all begin to wonder which one of them will be next, and who could be the evil behind all of this. Agatha Christie is a great mystery writer and I love her Hercule Poriot books. But when it came to this book I found that there were way to many characters to keep track of. Although the ending was ultimately great I found the rest of the book to be slow moving. The book is a good read, but if you want non-stop mystery action this book may not be for you.

Summary: Dame Agatha had some serious issues with nursery rhymes!
Review: AND THEN THERE WERE NONE (also titled TEN LITTLE INDIANS and originally another title that will not be listed here) is another story that was based on a nursery rhyme (others include A POCKET FULL OF RYE and HICKORY DICKORY DEATH). This 1939 novel opens with a varied group of eight travelers all bound for a weekend party on a fashionable island retreat. Other than their destination they seem to have nothing in common, they don't even seem to have been invited by the same person! When they arrive on the island they are met by two servants but no host. The mystery deepens when a recorded message accuses all, guests and staff, with murder - murders that they had all gotten away with until now. Needless to say this cast a shadow over the party, a shadow that deepened with the first murder and increased with every subsequent one. This is an unusual story in that there is no detective/hero that is investigating the crime throughout the story. Also the varied methods of each murder are predicted by the rhyme about the Indian boys. It is interesting to see how the mishaps of the rhyme are translated into actual methods of execution. Further the murder's identity is definitely kept a secret until the last page. This is one of Christie's most famous works, along with THE MURDER OF ROGER ACKROYD, MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS, and DEATH ON THE NILE. Like these other well known books, this one also has a very unusual ending. Much was made during Christie's career by her contemporaries about the 'rules of mystery writing' - these rules included: no unknown, untracable poisons, or 'death rays'; no keeping the murder out of the story until the last few paragraphs; the butler did NOT do it; all clues must be available to the reader etc. This novel, like the other well known mysteries previously listed, cut close to one or more of these rules but defintely did lay all the clues out fairly for the reader to find. It will be the very rare reader, however, who does manage to solve this puzzle before all is revealed in the final chapter.

Summary: Brilliant!!!
Review: This book is brilliant. I would have never guessed that ending. It was the best murder mystery I've ever read, and it was just for my pre-ap English class. It never gets boring. I would reccomend this book to anybody. Trust me, once you start reading, you can't stop.

Summary: Thrilling all the way
Review: Alrite, the starting was a lil boring, but it got v. excited as everyone arrived in the Indian Island. Hence, let the adventure (or should I say, killing?) begin. You won't wanna put it down until the last page.

Summary: Ten Little Indians
Review: Ten little Indian boys went out to dine; one choked his little self and then there were nine... One little Indian boy left all alone; he went and hanged himself and then there were none... This old nursery rhyme is the foundation of ¡§And Then There Were None," by Agatha Christie, who is also known as the Queen of Crime. This mystery is teeming with suspense, thrills, and surprises. The story begins with the rendezvous of ten strangers on Indian Island, a private island off the coast of Devon, England. An unknown host or hostess has invited the guests there for the weekend. However, the host never appears; instead, the sinful past of each guest is unwillingly revealed. One by one the sinners are punished for misdeeds from their dark past. Suddenly, the livings are amidst the dead and the guests are murdered in the same manner that the Indian boys die in the Nursery rhyme. Another element in the story that makes the hair raises on your neck is that there is ten Indian figures on a table in the main lobby. As each guest dies, one figure disappears... Agatha Christie manipulates the personalities of the characters well. She depicts their fear and sense of desperation through her clever usage of words. As the only ten people on the isolated Indian Island die one after another, Christie shows the helplessness and desperation of the survivors and she beautifully grasps the human emotions of the characters well. Another interesting technique of writing used by Agatha Christie is that she portrays the guests like normal people who have amiable and caring personalities. The readers will definitely a connection to them and even begin to like them. However, when the awful crimes of these seemingly innocent individuals are revealed, the readers will face a conundrum ¡V whether to fear for the lives of the characters or to fear them. This mystery also deals with the theme of justice and law, and how if ending the lives of the guilty out side the law are justified. Each of the guests on the island are found not guilty by the courts for crimes they had committed. The murderer, by killing these ten individuals, seems to seek justice where the courts had failed. Through this dilemma, Christie forces the readers to ponder whether seeking justice outside the law is morally acceptable, especially for cases in which the courts have failed.

Summary: Christie's best novel
Review: Agatha Christie wrote many mysteries, but And Then There Were None (aka Ten Little Indians) was her best. This is a masterpiece of plot and suspense. Some of her other books may have more memorable characters, or a charming, charismatic, quirky detective, but this book stands alone as her literary monument. It has plot, atmosphere, suspense, irony, economy. Highly recommended to any reader of mystery fiction.
