He hasn't been much of a reader but this is the FIRST book he reads without prodding. He talks about it a lot and always tells me what happened. The chapters aren't too long or overwhelming for early chapter readers. An easy read. It's refreshing to find a fun, adventure book without a lot of 'dark' themes. A rare find!" - Summer Blue, parent"Our night-time routine with our daughter and son (ages 7 and 5), is to read a book, watch a couple YouTube videos, talk about our day, and go to bed. This is the first book that had my kids begging to skip videos and talking time to just read a few more chapters." - Ian Fisher, parent"My second-grader and I devoured the series this past school year! They were really funny and exciting for both of us, with great plot twists. They are awesome read-alouds! I highly recommend them for any kids that are interested in video games, 2nd-7th grade. Yes -- a kids book that I can enjoy as much as a 2nd grader? Those are so few and far between. I'm also a middle school teacher. I handed the first book to a really reluctant reader in my 7th grade class this year and he ended up asking me what the next book is called so he could ask his mom for it" - ErmarCar, middle school teacher"This is one of the funnest sets of heroes I've encountered in some time, and this is one of the smartest [middle grade] action/adventure tales I've read, ever. It's entertaining but it also brings the reader into the fun of reading this kind of stuff, (without ever mocking the genre). The whole book has that kind of generous, knowing, upbeat, Boy's Own, vibe. ...The book delivered a ripping and amusing adventure in the company of some fine heroes. A nice find" - Pop Bop, Top-50 Amazon reviewerAbout the AuthorDustin Brady writes funny, action-packed books for kids. Although he regularly gets locked out of his own accounts for forget
