The Academy of Metahuman Operatives: School for Sidekicks

Więcej o książce

Evan Quick has always dreamed of becoming a hero, but despite his daily rituals to check for superpowers, he remains ordinary—no flying, super strength, or even the ability to turn on a light bulb. Just as he's ready to give up, a field trip to the Mask Museum is interrupted by a super villain attack, and Evan unexpectedly survives a death ray. When Captain Commanding, his favorite hero, arrives to save the day, Evan finds himself stepping up to help, but instead of the hero's welcome he anticipated, he's whisked away to The Academy, mockingly known as The School for Sidekicks. There, he faces classes like Banter Basics and Combat with Dinnerware while being assigned to Foxman, a has-been hero. As Evan navigates this new world, he worries he may never fulfill his dream of saving the day. This action-packed middle-grade novel offers a humorous and engaging tale of a young boy's journey through superhero school, filled with relatable adolescent experiences amidst extraordinary circumstances. With praise from Kirkus Reviews and Publishers Weekly, it promises a delightful adventure for readers eager for a fresh take on the superhero genre.
