Item Description...
Centered in the town of Odyssey, the story starts when a backpack filled with money is found in Gower's Field. Then a plane crashes outside town and a mysterious survivor is discovered who may be an undercover agent or part of a counterfeit ring---or something else altogether! Enter an underworld errand-boy who has a cell-phone full of secrets. And that's just the beginning of The Green Ring Conspiracy, a special adventure that puts our favorite Odyssey characters at the center of intrigue, suspense, and a scheme of international proportions. New friends may not be who they seem. Old friends have secrets they must keep. Deception and double-crosses are the order of the day. Trust, loyalty, and faith are all put to the test.
The Green Ring Conspiracy is unlike any collection of stories found in Odyssey, yet still brings together the drama, fun, humor, and life-lessons audiences have come to expect from the show over the years.

 | Great Book Dec 17, 2008 |
| This was a GREAT book!!! It was written with a sense of humor,but also contained some really great real,life information.This should be required new Dad reading,and should be handed out in the delivery room. | | | | Wonderful Book Mar 31, 2008 |
| The first book I ever purchased after my first daughter was born. Wonderfully written. I have since purchased a copy for every guy in my family with a daughter. | | | | great book Aug 15, 2007 |
| this book has some great info for all dads. also some good stories on how he learned from his mistakes as a dad. a must read for new fathers. | | |  | Dads will understand this! Jun 8, 2007 |
First let me say that I really intended to give 4.5 stars. It's an excellent book and I'm a better dad for having read it. It's a fast read (I read it in a day) and holds the attention of even dads who don't normally read "self-help" type books. Wolgemuth (author) is a man writing to men so it's not filled with warm fuzzy platitudes often seen in these types of books. (Men, you know what I mean!) He's one of us!
Of particular help is the point summary at the end of each chapter. This enables one to refer back to a given chapter and get the gist of the matter without having to re-read the entire book. It's an excellent memory-jogger and I wish every book of this genre had this. Great idea! It's almost like a checklist.
At times, it seems to delve into the common sense stuff a little too long (that's where he lost the half star) but most of it is excellent. Even when Wolgemuth is belaboring a point obvious to most dads of daughters, he still offers some kind of tip or activity to do related to that subject that you may not have thought of but sounds good.
Kudos to Wolgemuth for tackling subjects us dads are afraid of like physically touching your daughter. He deals with the subject forthrightly and delineates the appropriate and inappropriate. Another great inclusion is the chapter on blended families, single-dads, and long-distance dads. Some of his best insight is on the subject of dating and dealing with your daughters' friends and that worthless bum who seems to feel worthy to date your daughter. (OK, that last part is my phrasing, not his.) That part alone makes the entire book worth reading.
The book, as I mentioned, is a fast read; almost too fast. I would have liked him to go into more depth on a few things as it seems to me that he knows his stuff.
Bottom line: Dads will enjoy and understand this book. You will better protect your daughter and raise her to be a great woman with these principles.

| 6/'07: I have an 11 yo daughter. I thought this book was wonderful, however, I wish I'd gotten it several years ago. There is plenty of advice I would have enjoyed reading about and applying when she was younger. But, there is also plenty as well for now and as she gets older. It is never too late to start where you are! I think it is excellent for new fathers; start'em off right! I plan to purch. several and donate to the local public library, hospital library, etc. | | | Write your own review about Adv Odyssey V53: Green Ring Conspiracy (4CD)
