I don't mind reading used books, but I had paid for a new one and it was dogeared when it arrived.

This book is cool. On conditions, this is a nice book about when Ben went to defuse the bomb on chapter 24, and then making Murray unconscious in chapter 25, that was a good job.

Ben Ripley is your average 12 year old until one January day when he comes home to find a strange man in his house. The man is Alexander Hale, and he has great news for Ben. He's been selected to join the CIA's spy school for promising youth. He'll get to stay on the campus in nearby DC and learn all kinds of cool stuff. Naturally, Ben agrees. Unfortunately, Ben's life is in danger from the moment he walks in the door - literally. Just like the school he left, this one has bullies, only they are more knowledgeable in ways to harm him. And he seems to be part of a plot he has no idea about. Will he make friends and be able to survive? As I was reading the book, I felt like the supporting characters were underdeveloped. But then again, they'd need more page time, and the target audience won't care. That's because the book is lots of fun. The action really does start quickly and never really lags. The plot is well done with twists that make perfect sense. Ben is a very real kid, and I wanted to see him succeed in this crazy new world he has found himself in. And I found the book to be a very easy read. All told, this was another winner from Stuart Gibbs. I'm hearing a sequel is in the works, and I can't wait to visit Ben again.
