Allen and Unwin 2008
(Age 12+) Highly recommended for its originality, this sequel to
Evil
genius will enthral its readers with its high tech hero, Cadel
Piggott,
deciding to use his hacking skills to fight evil. With the Axis
Institute for World Domination blown up and Prosper English in gaol, he
and his friend Sonya are approached to join a group of talented kids
known as the Genius Squad. But can he trust the people at Clearview
House?
Jinks has mixed together a clever mixture of technology and computers
with an appealing hero who is learning to have a conscience and sorting
his way through right and wrong. Memorable characters crowd the pages
and the plot twists will keep the readers moving along at a fast past.
Intelligent readers who like books about technology and who appreciate
a brilliant plot and wonderful imagination will grab this fast moving
adventure.
