Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 4-7–Max(ine) Remy, 11, is a typical, if unusually klutzy kid, stuck in a new school with no friends, a mother with a new boyfriend, and a negative attitude about everything. In this installment in the series, while visiting her aunt and uncle in Pennsylvania, she and Linden are invited to visit the Spy Force headquarters in London, where they will be made full-fledged members of the team. An invisible jet whisks them to England, where they join Ella, another young spy (whose friendship with Linden drives Max crazy with jealousy) and the entire cast of mad scientists and chefs who run the organization. They are given a mission: to stop evil Mr. Blue from controlling the minds of all children. Max soon realizes that being a spy doesn't immediately solve all of her problems, most of which hinge on the fact that she is a negative person with almost no sense of humor. The tale moves along at a brisk pace and has lots of fun details. Fans of the Spy Kids franchise and Roald Dahl's imaginative worlds will find much to like, despite a heroine who needs to lighten up a bit.–Mara Alpert, Los Angeles Public Library

About the Author

Deborah Abela is a writer for a popular children's television program. This is her first book in the Spy Force series.

George O'Connor's cover -- as a mild-mannered clerk in one of Gotham's most beloved children's bookstores -- was completely blown when his first picture book, KAPOW!, exploded onto the scene. Forced to leave the bookselling world behind, he now spends even more time in his secret Brooklyn, New York, hideout -- where he uses his amazing artistic powers to strike fear in the hearts of bad guys everywhere!

This review is from: Mission: Spy Force Revealed (Mission: Spy Force; Max Remy Adventures) (Hardcover)

This is an awesome book. It is a little decieveing because I thought it would be serious and really into spy stuff but it was more comedy and not serious at all but that was even better. I really enjoyed it. BUY IT FOR YOUR KID OR FOR YOURSELF.
